bug#59970: BUG: install with package.el on emacs-29.0.60 requires manual editing of hyperbole-autoloads.el to make autoloading work

[Robert Weiner]

Presently the elpa config does not allow us to ship the autoloads file as we 
would like; instead it is built by elpa rather than being a part if the 
distributions we make.  Maybe it could be added to tar distributions that won’t 
be used by a package manager.

Did you get it working?
