Ok thanks.

I am sorry to nag, but I find the lack of some manual frustrating.

If I understand correctly, all I have to do is  to provide a file
matlab-pkg.el, then automatically the info string will be updated.

But I am not sure about its contend. Looking up in packages I installed
from MELPA such as

 helm-bibtex-pkg.el

 does not really help because it contains strings I presume are
 generated during installation, namely the string  "20160412.1353" as in 
,----
| 
| (define-package "helm-bibtex" "20160412.1353" "A BibTeX bibliography manager 
based on Helm"
|   '((helm "1.5.5")
|     (parsebib "1.0")
|     (s "1.9.0")
|     (dash "2.6.0")
|     (f "0.16.2")
|     (cl-lib "0.5")
|     (biblio "0.2")))
| ;; Local Variables:
| ;; no-byte-compile: t
| ;; End:
`----

So based on this how should matlab-pkg.el look?

 For example

,----
| ;;; -*- no-byte-compile: t -*-
| (define-package "matlab-mode" "20131013.2205" "Major mode for MATLAB(R) dot-m 
files"
|   'nil
|   :keywords
|   '("matlab" "programming" "language" "(X)emacs"))
`----


Or


,----
| ;;; -*- no-byte-compile: t -*-
| (define-package "matlab-mode" " " "Major mode for MATLAB(R) dot-m files"
|   'nil
|   :keywords
|   '("matlab" "programming" "language" "(X)emacs"))
`----

Thanks
