If you start a fresh Emacs config with an empty ~/.emacs.d/elpa
directory, calling M-x package-install ANY-PACKAGE will fail since the
archive sources haven't been fetched yet. M-x package-list-packages will
work, but sometimes the simpler form is preferred.
The attached patch fixes this problem.
In GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.4)
