I am using the use-package macro to install treemacs like this:
(use-package treemacs
:vc (treemacs :url "https://github.com/Alexander-Miller/treemacs"
:branch "master"
:lisp-dir "src/elisp/")
:ensure t
:config
(compile-and-load-subdirs "treemacs" "src/extra"))
Anyways, it will install just fine. However, M-x list-packages will not
work anymore, showing /home/aritro/src/elisp directory not found. This
is because list-packages calls package-menu--generate, which in turn
calls package-menu--refresh, which calls
package-menu--print-info-simple, which in turn calls package-vc-commit,
wherein the problem lies. In package-vc-commit, the lisp-dir is not
expanded. Just below, package-vc--main-file does in fact correctly
expand it, so a simple patch like this seems to fix it, the solution
being directly copied from the package-vc--main-file function:
diff --git a/lisp/emacs-lisp/package-vc.el b/lisp/emacs-lisp/package-vc.el
index 6642522d11e..68b85db4c46 100644

Yes, this patch (which is now merged) solves the issue for me. However,
this doesn't solve issue #79874 for me, loading multiple directories
besides the main package, essential for packages like vertico or corfu.
Should I rewrite the patch for #79874, given current changes?

Although the current patch solved my previous problem, it seems that
many things
that were previously working are broken. For example. lisp-dir doesn't work
anymore. It worked at first, because most projects do use either 'lisp'
or 'src'
as their lisp-dir, if not the project root. But if you edebug through
package-vc--unpack-1, you will quickly notice that lisp-dir isn't
respected at
all for anything else, like if the directory is 'source' or somethink like
'kiki' instead of 'src'. I discovered it when I was trying to figure out
where
ignored-files is broken , another bug. Maybe shell-command or make, and some
other keywords available in use-package-vc-valid-keywords don't work
either, but
I have not checked. They did work before the recently merged changes, but
stopped working (maybe some bug in the new pkg-spec format?). I guess
that some
keywords are not being stored in the spec, which leads to these keys
being nil,
and so only the default value works. This has also made changing the spec to
include extra directories (the lisp-subdirs patch) quite difficult too.
By the way, should I open a new bug report for this, or will this one
suffice?

Note that this was always an issue and something that we think that the
package maintainers should take of. For ELPA, we have
:renames (("extensions/" ""))
that modifies the checkout before creating a tarball, but we don't want
to do that in the case of VC packages for obvious reasons.
Currently the only packages that make use of this for moving around code
are vertico and corfu, which is why I would prefer to solve the problem
by contacting Daniel and discussing the matter with him.

I think it would be better to create a new bug report so that we can
refer to the issues directly in the code, commit messages and other bug rep=
orts.

vertico and corfu are not the only packages affected; lsp-mode and
treemacs are a couple of other packages impacted by this issue as well.
In my opinion, users should have an option to include directories other
than the vc-dir root. Note that this is not a particularly difficult
problem to fix, since loaddefs-generate can generate an autoloads file
for multiple directories — a capability that the
package-generate-autoloads function does not currently utilize.
Furthermore, we can also add these 'subdirs' to the load path, exactly
as we add the directory that will contain the autoload file (i.e., the
vc-dir) in the aforementioned package-generate-autoloads function.
TL;DR: We can solve the problem by patching the
package-generate-autoloads function, and possibly patching
package-vc--unpack-1, to scan for Package-Requires in files of 'subdirs'
as well, without needing package maintainers to change their project
structure.
By the way, before the current changes to pkg-desc (and pkg-spec) in
package-vc--unpack-1, my patch with the added vc keyword of lisp-subdir
worked quite well. However, with the recent patches, using (plist-get
pkg-spec ...) is failing (even for lisp-dir, which is the bug I was
mentioning), and as a result, my patch is also not working. Once the
reason for the failure of plist-get on pkg-spec is identified and fixed,
implementing the patch should be straightforward.

OK, I will open a new bug report for this.
