<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Sometimes when setting up a new package I get a weird error. Example</p> <p>I try to run:</p> <p><code>(use-package ivy)</code> (&quot;C-x C-e&quot; to evaluate)</p> <p>Result:</p> <p><code>Error (use-package): Failed to install ivy: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil</code></p> <p><code>Error (use-package): Cannot load ivy</code></p> <p>Then, without (knowingly) changing anything it will start to work. I&#39;m convinced emacs just wants to see me scramble to the internet. </p> <p>Has anyone else seen this, or am I living in the twilight zone? Any insight would be appreciated.</p> <p>A bit of context:</p> <p>- This is in my congif.org file</p> <p>- I&#39;m in server mode</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> &#32; submitted by &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/straar"> /u/straar </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/rssab9/noob_question_about_usepackage/">[link]</a></span> &#32; <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/rssab9/noob_question_about_usepackage/">[comments]</a></span>
