How to stop emacs asking if it should install a package? The package does not appear anywhere in the config files
|
|
|
|
** Ellama:
|
|
Your Emacs is getting a list of packages to install from somewhere, so if it's not in any of your
|
|
config files, you may have a stray file or code block containing this. Emacs settings can be loaded
|
|
from different files(like .emacs, .emacs.el, .emacs.d/init.el) and if you have multiple
|
|
configuration files, Emacs could be loading preferences from a different configuration.
|
|
|
|
Check if you have multiple init files lying around your system or if there is an updated package
|
|
list that Emacs is pulling down somewhere else.
|
|
|
|
Also check to see if there is some package's pre/post-install/update hooks have this package to be
|
|
installed.
|
|
|
|
But the direct answer of how to stop emacs asking is to use 'yes-or-no-p' function.
|
|
|
|
(setq use-package-always-ensure t)
|
|
|
|
Above statement enables automatic installation of packages without prompt. It ensures that packages
|
|
are installed automatically if not present already.
|
|
|
|
However, doing so would install packages without asking you. Make sure you understand the
|
|
implications.
|
|
|
|
Also, make sure you backup your Emacs configuration files regularly, especially before making any
|
|
major changes or updates.
