Message #5 received at submit <at> debbugs.gnu.org (full text, mbox):
The variable `use-package-always-ensure` cannot be used reliably in
init.el or early-init.el without adding the line `(require
'use-package-ensure)` or `(require 'use-package)`.
I tested the following init.el files, each time with a completely empty
.emacs.d directory. Note that I'm using which-key as an example of a
package that is not included in Emacs (29.4), the same results happened with
other packages. What I include in this report is the entirety of the
init.el files tested.
The following init.el file failed to download which-key:
(setq use-package-always-ensure t)
(use-package which-key
:init
(setq which-key-idle-delay 0.1)
:config
(which-key-mode))
With the error:
⛔ Error (use-package): Cannot load which-key
Even when putting `(setq use-package-always-ensure t)` in an
early-init.el and having only that line in it, and having only the
`use-package` statement in the init.el
The following init.el files downloaded which-key:
1.
(use-package which-key
:ensure t
:init
(setq which-key-idle-delay 0.1)
:config
(which-key-mode))
2.
(setq use-package-always-ensure t)
(use-package which-key ;; after 30 will be in
:ensure t
:init
(setq which-key-idle-delay 0.1)
:config
(which-key-mode))
3.
(require 'use-package-ensure)
(setq use-package-always-ensure t)
(use-package which-key
:init
(setq which-key-idle-delay 0.1)
:config
(which-key-mode))
4.
(require 'use-package)
(setq use-package-always-ensure t)
(use-package which-key ;; after 30 will be in
:init
(setq which-key-idle-delay 0.1)
:config
(which-key-mode))
The reason I consider this a bug is because in my real much bigger
init.el, which does not require `use-package-ensure` or `use-package`,
when opening Emacs with nothing else in the .emacs.d directory, some
packages get downloaded and some don't. This makes me think that at some
point `use-package-ensure` gets loaded. Also since `use-package` is
autoloaded, requiring it should not make a difference.
The user jmml in the #emacs IRC channel found that requiring
`use-package-ensure` or `use-package` fixes the problem.
