Subject: bug#12721: 24.2; package-installed-p behavior on emacs startup
Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2012 22:05:51 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <jwvpq46yomy.fsf-monnier+emacs@gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <E1TRYnr-0000u2-BM@fencepost.gnu.org> (Richard Stallman's message of "Thu, 25 Oct 2012 21:33:39 -0400")

> Why make package-installed-p something different from featurep?

`featurep' typically indicates if a particular file has been loaded,
whereas `package-installed-p' indicates whether the package is available
(e.g. can be loaded).
