Hello,

On a newly configured OS with basic emacs settings in ~/.emacs.d/init.el the following packages do install: which-key, hyperbole.

M-x list-packages updates the ~/.emacs.d/init.el with

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(package-initialize)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

But, the Org Mode package fails to install leaving a mention of 'https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/org-9.2.3.tar' in the messages area where it is stuck in the muck.

After installing wget, I am able  

  wget https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/org-9.2.3.tar

to download ok.

I'm not quite sure I follow -- you try to install org from ELPA, but it
fails?  Do you get any error messages?

Yes, there was an error message but I've forgotten it.

What I did was list and install packages without any settings for package-archives in the init.el.  This was possible for which-key and hyperbole.  The install process failed to complete for org from gnu/elpa.  

Setting the ("org" . "https://orgmode.org/elpa/") as part of package-archives enabled org from orgmode/elpa to install.

To be clear. Without the following section at the top of init.el, I was able to install which-key and hyperbole but not org.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;;; package management
(require 'package)
(package-initialize)
(setq package-archives '(("gnu" . "https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/")
			 ("org" . "https://orgmode.org/elpa/")
			 ("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I still don't quite understand -- you should be able to install the
packages without having any of that stuff in init.el, surely?

If I say "emacs -Q" and `M-x package-list-packages', I get "org" in the
list, and I can install it.

I was able to install which-key and hyperbole, only.

I am able to reproduce the problem after relabelling ~/.emacs.d to ~/__dot__emacs.d and invoking 'emacs -Q' then 'M-x list-packages'.

In trying to install org-9.2.3, a question in a dialogue box asks for Yes or No answer to 

  Buffer " *http elpa.gnu.org:443* has a running process; kill it?"

I say Yes and the error message is

  Failed to verify signature: "org-9.2.3.tar.sig"

The error help buffer has...

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Failed to verify signature org-9.2.3.tar.sig:

(You shouldn't need to rename anything if you use "emacs -Q", I think?)

Huh.  "http"?  Did Emacs 26.1 try to download from http instead of
https?  Perhaps that's the problem?  Does this ring a bell with anybody?

That's natural, because you probably didn't get the package downloaded,
so it compares the signature of null with the expected signature...

Even with 'emacs -Q', package.el may consult cached downloads from
~/.emacs.d/elpa, so it's safest to rename, or use a temp HOME directory
to test this.

Shouldn't it say that it failed to download it, instead?

Thanks,

I'm trying to understand this bug, but I'm not sure exactly what is
happening.  Could you please provide an exact recipe for reproducing
this, starting from "emacs -Q"?

In the above I report I used M-x list-packages; in the following, I use
M-x package-list-packages

This is due to the new GNU ELPA key, I think.  See:
https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/233/how-to-proceed-on-package-el-signature-check-failure/52823#52823

Could you try to reproduce this on Emacs 26.3 instead?  Or
alternatively fix the local key ring in your installation as per the
instructions in the link above, and then try again?

Best regards,
Stefan Kangas

A similar problem was reported to help-gnu-emacs which was solved by
Emacs 26.2.90.

> Could you try to reproduce this on Emacs 26.3 instead?

Emacs 26.3 lists org (9.1.9) as built-in.  The details of the package
shows 9.2.6 and I am able to gotothere to click the Install button.
And, it goes to the end without erroring.

> Or alternatively fix the local key ring in your installation as per

On Emacs 26.1 with package-check-signature set nil the steps allowed go
as far as clicking the Install button for 9.2.6 and progress stops.  The
Messages buffer has:

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
  Install package ‘org-9.2.6’? y
