Hi,
Wanting to test whether package-vc-install in Emacs 29.1 is now a
suitable replacement for Quelpa for installing my Ement.el package from
git, I started an instance of Emacs 29.1 in a clean configuration and
evaluated:
(package-vc-install "https://github.com/alphapapa/ement.el")
It seemed to proceed, installing Ement's dependencies, but when it began
to compile Ement itself, it gave errors about not being able to find one
of the dependencies, taxy-magit-section:

Pressing "C-h P taxy-magit-section RET" shows:

But, while other dependency packages have been added to the load-path,
taxy-magit-section has not:
load-path is a variable defined in ‘C source code’.

I've no explanation for why it would be omitted wile other dependencies
installed by the same command were added correctly.
My only guess is that it could be that package-vc is not correctly
handling the fact that "taxy-magit-section" is maintained in the same
git repository as "taxy", in a separate branch. GNU ELPA handles this
correctly, so it seems that package-vc should as well.

In my case, I got a few error messages as well, but ement was available
after the command had finished.

That shouldn't make a difference, since dependencies for VC packages are
downloaded just like for regular packages.

Eager macro expansion errors indicate macro-expansion failure and
compilation failure; the package is not installed correctly.
As well, as I said, the taxy-magit-section package is not present in the
load-path, which means it can't be loaded by ement at load time.
These problems don't occur when installing ement and its dependencies
from GNU ELPA with package-install, nor when installing them from git
with Quelpa.

Agreed, however it's the only difference I can think of in the
taxy-magit-section package recipe.

When you say clean configuration, do you mean that you invoked emacs
with -Q, or also --init-directory=[some fresh directory]? I noticed
that you appear to be using Guix, so did you perhaps use a Guix
container shell?
I ask, because it might be that just using -Q is insufficient in this
case, in case you already have a regular Emacs configuration, as it
(falsely) assumes the package has already been installed, but it doesn't
add it to the load path.
Because in my case (GNU Emacs 30.0.50 (build 6, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu,
GTK+ Version 3.24.37, cairo version 1.16.0) of 2023-08-15),
lemacs -Q --init-directory=/tmp
appears to have all the right directories in `load-path':
Value:
("/tmp/package-isolate-gaZsWf/elpa/ement"
"/tmp/package-isolate-gaZsWf/elpa/taxy-magit-section-0.12.2"

I've tried three different ways now:
1. Using my with-emacs.sh script [0] (which was written for Emacs before
the "--init-directory" option was added, but remains compatible with
Emacs 29.1):
with-emacs.sh -e emacs-29.1 -- --eval '(package-vc-install
"https://github.com/alphapapa/ement.el")'
2. Using "-q --init-directory", i.e.
emacs-29.1 -q --init-directory=$(mktemp -d) --eval
'(package-vc-install "https://github.com/alphapapa/ement.el")'
3. Using "-Q --init-directory", i.e.
emacs-29.1 -Q --init-directory=$(mktemp -d) --eval
'(package-vc-install "https://github.com/alphapapa/ement.el")'
All three ways seem to produce the same problem with the same error
messages and the same load-path missing taxy-magit-section's directory.
I do have Emacs 29.1 installed with Guix, on top of my Debian system.
However, I've been using this setup for quite some time now, having also
used Guix to install Emacs 27 and 28 previously, and I've never had this
problem before. So I don't think that Guix is related to the problem,
although I can't say for certain.
Scouring the "*Messages*" buffer again, I noticed another series of
messages:

As you can see, it says that it can't activate taxy-magit-section
because magit-section-3.2.1 is unavailable. However, about 20 lines later:
Checking /tmp/tmp.m5Cj6y1gaF/elpa/dash-2.19.1/doc...

GEN ement-autoloads.el
So it installs magit-section (at v3.3.0) two packages later.
The taxy-magit-section has these dependencies specified in
"taxy-magit-section.el":
;; Package-Requires: ((emacs "26.3") (magit-section "3.2.1") (taxy
"0.10"))
And, as listed in "C-h P taxy-magit-section RET":
Package taxy-magit-section is dependency.
Status: Installed in ‘taxy-magit-section-0.12.2/’.
Version: 0.12.2
Commit: 594531569c03206cbc83b74d679ffd0e93edb4d0
Summary: View Taxy structs in a Magit Section buffer
Requires: emacs-26.3, magit-section-3.2.1, taxy-0.10
So it seems that magit-section is being installed after
taxy-magit-section rather than before, which seems to prevent Emacs from
activating the taxy-magit-section package (and thereby adding it to
load-path), which later causes the compilation of ement to fail since it
can't find taxy-magit-section.
And all of this seems to be because the version number of magit-section
is not being correctly recognized as a later version and thereby
fulfilling the dependency--this even though it is being recognized as a
dependency and installed by another part of the process.
Meanwhile, if I install using package-install with:
emacs-29.1 --init-directory=$(mktemp -d) -q --eval "(package-install
'ement)"
Then installation of all packages proceeds without error, and load-path
shows:

So there appears to be a bug somewhere in the package-vc library.
I see that you tested with an Emacs 30.0.50 build. Could you test with
29.1, the version I'm using?
Thanks,
Adam

I have been using the third approach (with the difference that I invoked
`package-vc-install' as a command using M-x), and it worked. When I use
your command, it doesn't -- so that is good from a reproducability
perspective.

I wasn't implying that it was to blame, rather I just wanted to make
sure whether or not you were/weren't launching Emacs in an isolated
container.

With a slight modification of `package-vc-install-dependencies', we can
see in which order the dependencies are installed:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(package-vc-install-dependencies (package-desc-reqs (cadr (assoc 'ement package-archive-contents))))
;=> (:to-install (svg-lib persist plz taxy taxy-magit-section) :missing nil)
; ^ mapc runs over this
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
This made me suspect that there might be a bug in that function, and
with these changes, the above command works (I can't test it because my
matrix account AFAIK isn't supported by Ement):

It boils down to a lack-of-type-safety kind of bug. It was comparing
'package-name with (package-name . "version string"), that always ends
up being nil.
Not sure about the change to `dependent-order', I'll have to think about
that in more detail tomorrow. Perhaps there is an all-together shorter
patch?

Great.

This is a bit off-topic, but would you please explain what you mean (via
private email would be fine)? AFAIK Ement.el should support any Matrix
account on any homeserver. If you've encountered a bug trying to use
it, I'd like to fix it.

I've encountered similar issues when dealing with package.el functions.
The inconsistent use of types can be challenging to work with.

It seems like a reasonable patch to me.
Is there any chance of getting this fix to Emacs 29 users, either via a
29.2 release or by putting a new version of package-vc on GNU ELPA? It
would be a shame for this great new feature to be unusable (or
unreliable) until Emacs 30 is released.
Thanks for your work,
Adam

I misphrased my comment, what I meant to say was that my server appears
to only support Element right now. So nothing is wrong with Ement.

The best way to solve this is my experience is to provide helper
functions like `package-equal' or something like that smooth over
smaller mistakes like this.

I would expect that this patch would be applied to the emacs-29 branch.
There has been a discussion on the topic of adding both package.el and
package-vc.el to ELPA, but there hasn't been any further discussion for
a few months now.

I have pushed the above patch and will close this report.
