Depends how you parse the sentence:

    Emacs also automatically loads all (installed packages) in
    subsequent Emacs sessions
vs
    Emacs also automatically loads all (installed packages in
    previous Emacs sessions)

but in the second case you'd rather write it

    Emacs also automatically loads all packages installed in
    previous Emacs sessions

so I think "subsequent" was not a typo.
