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)
Sorry, I still can't reproduce the problem. I created a .emacs file
just containing the code you posted:
$ cat .emacs
(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)))
I then started emacs and ran 'M-x list-packages' without a problem.
Are you sure there's nothing else in your various initialization files
that could be interfering with this? Don't forget about default.el,
site-start.el, and .Xresources. ('emacs -Q' excludes all of these.)
I'm attaching the cygcheck.out file per instructions.
Thanks. Nothing in it jumps out at me as problematic.
