Installation without ELPA without Internet access takes >60s to start #449

Closed rschmidlin closed 7 years ago

rschmidlin commented 7 years ago

By cloning the repository, extending the load-path and requiring ergoemacs-mode, Emacs takes up to a minute to start on absence of Internet because ELPA tries to update undo-tree and persistent-soft on each start.

Actually I also had to connect the computer to the internet to initially install the required packages because ErgoEmacs wouldn't accept the manually installed ones. Is there a way of configuring ErgoEmacs to not use ELPA for computers without continuous access to the Internet?

This needs to be fixed. I will look into this soon.

mattfidler commented 7 years ago

Do you have undo-tree and persistent soft already installed?

mattfidler commented 7 years ago

It shouldn't require them any longer.

I looked through the code, and I think that ergoemacs-mode can function without them.
