use-package-always-ensure ignored #1041

Closed Ergus closed 5 months ago

Ergus commented 1 year ago

Hi:

I just tried using in my init: 

(setq-default use-package-always-ensure t)
(use-package some-uninstalled-package : defer t)

Then I restart emacs, but the package is not installed. If I do C-x C-e to the use-package line then the installation starts. And if I add :ensure to the line the package is also installed on startup; but somehow the use-package-always-ensure is not working at the start moment...

I am using the use-package in vanilla and this used to work some tie ago... but I am not sure if there were some recent change?

Same here.

Likewise...

Using Emacs 29.2 and also experienced in Emacs 27.1.

As of writing this, I'm using the latest MELPA release 20230426.2324.

⛔ Warning (initialization): An error occurred while loading ‘/Users/AAA/.emacs.d/init.el’:

File is missing: Cannot open load file, No such file or directory, helm-lsp

The lines in my init.el to reproduce:

(eval-and-compile
  (setq use-package-always-ensure t
        use-package-expand-minimally t))

(use-package helm-lsp)

Fixed by using adding (require 'use-package-ensure).

So in my case, I adjusted things to:

(eval-and-compile
  (require 'use-package-ensure)
  (setq use-package-always-ensure t
        use-package-expand-minimally t))

(use-package helm-lsp)

This is mentioned in the README. 😛 Also, the commit that would best resolve this was 5604c24d0f13f045b89fcece3768aff1d9cf410d
