I can reproduce it but don't see why you couldn't make a proper bug
report with a version (for the record, mine is 24.3.50.1, compiled today).
Stefan: I think the problem is `package--alist-to-plist'. The generated
PACKAGE-pkg.el has, for example:
(define-package "ack" "1.3" "Interface to ack-like source code search tools" 'nil :keywords ("tools" "processes" "convenience") :url "https://github.com/leoliu/ack-el")
(define-package "nlinum" "1.1" "Show line numbers in the margin" 'nil :url "http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/nlinum.html" :keywords ("convenience"))
If I quote the keywords, e.g.
:keywords '("convenience")
then the function call works but I don't really understand the creative
mix of `defstruct' and the `define-package' funcall that errors out, so
I couldn't write the fix and test it. I hope you or someone else has a
chance to do it... I may try it again tomorrow if no one else does.
Ted
