Ihor,
I do not like lengthy emacs commands and make functions to generate
them. I think, it is better to move such code to a script. A proof of
concept is attached, however it is rather rough draft
./epm.el -Q --epm-dir $(emacs_pkgdir)/emacs-%e install compat

avoid installing compat in the case of sufficiently new emacs? E.g.
dpkg/apt allows such alternatives.
Early I asked concerning compat-29.1.3. I would prefer to

I know no other Emacs packages that manage dependencies using make.
org-ql uses a helper shell script. org-roam and
I am attaching a slightly tweaked version of the patch that will make
less use of internet connection (use only when really, really
