Without a backtrace, it's hard to say exactly, but I strongly suspect that the error you're seeing here happens when we try to `read' an incompletely downloaded archive-contents file. Normally, you should get the error saying "Failed to download `%s' archive." But if debug-on-error is non-nil, then you will get a backtrace instead. I think that is the correct behaviour. Having read this thread and investigated this issue a bit, I have a hard time figuring out exactly what to do. I think we have too little to go on: no backtrace and no recipe for reproduction. - When you saw this, did you have debug-on-error set to a non-nil value? - Have you seen this issue since, and if so, are you able to reproduce it? - Alternatively, could you provide a backtrace? In summary, I think we need more information in order to be able to make any progress here. If I don't hear back from you within a couple of weeks, I'll just close this as unreproducible. If anyone has any other ideas, please speak up. Best regards, Stefan Kangas
