Thanks Ken. Running emacs with the -Q switch has shown me that this is an ELisp problem with my init.el. This is a problem on Cygwin but not on ArchLinux (I synchronize this file accross all my Unix instances including VM's).
The problem is this section, where, if I comment out adding the
Marmalade repository to the package manger, then 'list-packages works
oké, but of course, then I do not access all the repositories I want
when I use the packaging system:
(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/") t)
;; (add-to-list 'package-archives
;; '("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/") t)
(package-initialize)
(defvar my-packages '(icicles
clojure-mode
cider
magit
rubocop
rspec-mode
el-spec
feature-mode
graphene
color-theme
password-generator
dockerfile-mode))
(dolist (p my-packages)
(when (not (package-installed-p p))
(package-install p)))
(global-set-key (kbd "<f4>") 'list-packages)
I'm attaching the cygcheck.out file per instructions.
