When I insert that into my .emacs, regardless of whether near the beginning or near the end, I don't get the *Compile-Log* buffer. > Then I looked into package.el and found that code at its end: > (insert " > ;; Local\sVariables: > ;; version-control: never > ;;\sno-byte-compile: t > ;; no-update-autoloads: t > ;; End: > ")))) > Since commenting out the > ;;\sno-byte-compile: t > line again avoids the message I concluded that Stefan somehow got the > grep in makefile wrong which looks for > grep '^;.*no-byte-compile: t' > and apparently finds the one in that line.

I just don't see how a mix up in the Local Variables section(s) can cause the appearance of *Compile-Log* with its irritating message. I can't reproduce the problem, either. What is the causal connection between the Local Variables: mixup and the appearnace of the *Compile-Log* buffer? > My patch is just a workaround (which happens to work here) for people > to test.
