Can't reproduce this with current trunk and elpa descriptions.

Hi,
I re-opened the bug because I had it too, and was now able to reproduce
it. The problems lies in
~/.emacs.d/elpa/debbugs-0.6/debbugs-pkg.el
Here's how to reproduce:
NEWHOME=/tmp/a-new-home/
mkdir $NEWHOME
HOME=$NEWHOME emacs -Q --eval '(progn (setq debug-on-error t)
(package-initialize) (package-refresh-contents) (package-install (quote
debbugs)) (describe-package (quote debbugs)))'
I hope this helps other to reproduce.

Nico.

I see this bug.
The problem is that the package description before installing a
package has a quoted list, and after installing it, isn't quoted:
;;; Before installing debbugs
[cl-struct-package-desc
debbugs
(0 6)
"SOAP library to access debbugs servers"
nil
tar
"gnu"
nil
((:keywords quote ("comm" "hypermedia"))
(:url . "http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/debbugs.html"))
nil]
;;; After installing debbugs
[cl-struct-package-desc
debbugs
(0 6)
"SOAP library to access debbugs servers"
nil
nil
nil
"c:/devel/emacs/site-lisp/elpa/debbugs-0.6"
((:url . "http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/debbugs.html")
(:keywords ("comm" "hypermedia")))
nil]
so package-desc--keywords gets confused.

This one looks incorrect.

OK, but then, why does package-desc--keywords explicitly check for it?
Perhaps hysterical raisins?
(defun package-desc--keywords (pkg-desc)
(let ((keywords (cdr (assoc :keywords (package-desc-extras pkg-desc)))))
(if (eq (car-safe keywords) 'quote)
(nth 1 keywords)
keywords)))

Also, that's how it is stored in elpa/archives/gnu/archive-contents:
(debbugs .
[(0 6)
nil "SOAP library to access debbugs servers" tar
((:keywords quote
("comm" "hypermedia"))
(:url . "http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/debbugs.html"))])

It's a hack, kinda. You're welcome to implement it better.
The bug in question, though, should be fixed with revision 116830.

Wasn't complaining about it.
