convert package name to string #45

Closed lmmarsano closed 3 years ago

lmmarsano commented 3 years ago

package-build generates define-package expressions with bare symbols where strings are required: the define-package docstring states

NAME-STRING is the name of the package, as a string.

however, the docstring for package-desc states

`name' Name of the package, as a symbol.

so we must convert the symbol from this slot to a string

fixes melpa/melpa#7312

Fixed similarly upstream in https://github.com/melpa/package-build/commit/848c757c41071b655ab23dc6b4867f0d3edc357d and then grafted here, so will close this.
