Melpa install of ebib fails with `http://stable.melpa.org/packages/ebib-2.25.1.tar: Not found` #254

Problem

The ebib tar file appears to be missing from melpa.org, so melpa install doesn't work.

Detail

To reproduce the issue, open up emacs and then: M-x package-install <RET> ebib <RET>

You get the following error: http://stable.melpa.org/packages/ebib-2.25.1.tar: Not found

Here's a screenshot of the minibuffer:

In my experience this is usually caused by your local package list not being up to date. Try updating your package list and see if the problem persists.

Thanks, that worked. For anyone coming across this:

M-x list-packages <RET>

Wait till you see the list, then again try the package-install command.
