Recursive require on emacs 29

Getting eval-buffer: Recursive load: between gptel.elc and gptel-gemini.el

When byte compiling gptel-gemini.el:

Compiling file <REDACTED>/.emacs.d/elpa/gptel-20240308.224/gptel-gemini.el at Fri Mar  8 13:47:58 2024
Entering directory ‘<REDACTED>/.emacs.d/elpa/gptel-20240308.224/’
gptel-gemini.el:25:2: Error: Recursive ‘require’ for feature ‘gptel’

Performed a clean reinstall by deleting the gptel directory and reinstalling the package. While gptel functions correctly immediately after installation, a recursive require error is encountered upon restarting Emacs. This error renders gptel unusable after the initial session.

Not sure what could be causing this.

Can you share your config for gptel?

I had this:

(use-package gptel
  :defer t
  :commands (gptel gptel-menu gptel-send gptel-request)
  :bind (:map gptel-mode-map
              ("C-c C-<return>" . gptel-send))
  :custom
  (gptel-backend (gptel-make-gemini "Gemini"
                   :key #'gptel-api-key
                   :stream t))
  (gptel-model "gemini-pro")
  (gptel-log-level "debug"))

Commenting out (gptel-backend ... resolves the issue, so I moved it from use-package's :custom to :config and now the error is gone.

This is how it works now:

(use-package gptel
  :defer t
  :commands (gptel gptel-menu gptel-send gptel-request)
  :bind (:map gptel-mode-map
              ("C-c C-<return>" . gptel-send))
  :custom
  (gptel-model "gemini-pro")
  (gptel-log-level "debug") ;; nil, info, debug
  :config
  (setq gptel-backend (gptel-make-gemini "Gemini"
                        :key #'gptel-api-key
                        :stream t)))
