Subject: bug#55655: 28.1; package.el no longers respects `user-emacs-directory'
Date: Thu, 26 May 2022 16:37:48 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CALjXJSTak5R1DvxvKpX+jmLNBTSrpC-+qqTVUG7pMxAETu44dA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Until emacs 27.2, package.el used to correctly pick `package-user-dir'
based on the value of `user-emacs-directory', but it now seems to ignore
it and defaults to "~/.emacs.d/elpa".
Demo:
(setq user-emacs-directory "/tmp")
(require 'package)
(message "%s" package-user-dir)
Starting with "emacs -Q" this would output "~/.emacs.d/elpa".
Expected output: "/tmp/elpa" (as in emacs 27.2).
Based on git bisect, the offending commit seems to be 9973019764.
