I'm trying to have these in my init file:

  (package-initialize)
  (package-install 'markdown-mode)  ; and more calls like this.

Unfortunately, running package-install a second time with a package that
is already installed errors with
`Wrong type argument: arrayp, markdown-mode'.

This can be reproduced with `emacs -Q' by doing:

  M-x package-initialize
  M-: (package-install 'markdown-mode)
  M-: (package-install 'markdown-mode)

This is caused by the
  (message "`%s' is already installed" (package-desc-full-name pkg))
at the end of package-install, where `pkg' is a symbol, not a
package-desc struct.

(How come this didn't bother many people before?  Rerhaps because it's
hard to run package-install interactively with an already installed
package, it doesn't complete those.)

I can send a patch but I suppose it's faster for you to fix
than the copyright assignment dance...
