The help instructs one to use the gen_project.jl script in order to update an old packages that still has a REQUIRE file.
However, the script seems outdated and does not work on Julia 1.5.
I suggest removing this from the documentation of Pkg.jl or fixing the script.
The script works but you need an old version of Julia, but yea, at this point we can probably just delete it from the manual.
