修改.emacs时emacs启动错误

我是emacs的新手。我正在尝试使用this guide为Python设置它。它建议的第一步之一是将以下内容添加到init.el

;; init.el --- Emacs configuration

;; INSTALL PACKAGES
;; --------------------------------------

(require 'package)

(add-to-list 'package-archives
       '("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/") t)

(package-initialize)
(when (not package-archive-contents)
  (package-refresh-contents))

(defvar myPackages
  '(better-defaults
    material-theme))

(mapc #'(lambda (package)
    (unless (package-installed-p package)
      (package-install package)))
      myPackages)

;; BASIC CUSTOMIZATION
;; --------------------------------------

(setq inhibit-startup-message t) ;; hide the startup message
(load-theme 'material t) ;; load material theme
(global-linum-mode t) ;; enable line numbers globally

;; init.el ends here

由于我有一个.emacs文件,因此我尝试仅将其附加到该文件中。之后,我的.emacs如下:

(require 'package)
(setq package-archives '(("gnu" . "http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/")
                         ("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/")
                         ("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/")))
(package-initialize)
(when (not package-archive-contents) (package-refresh-contents))

(let ((default-directory "~/.emacs.d/elpa/"))
    (normal-top-level-add-to-load-path '("."))
    (normal-top-level-add-subdirs-to-load-path))
(custom-set-variables
 ;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom.
 ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
 ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
 ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
 )
(custom-set-faces
 ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
 ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
 ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
 ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
 )

;; init.el --- Emacs configuration

;; INSTALL PACKAGES
;; --------------------------------------



(add-to-list 'package-archives
       '("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/") t)

(package-initialize)
(when (not package-archive-contents)
  (package-refresh-contents))

(defvar myPackages
  '(better-defaults
    material-theme))

(mapc #'(lambda (package)
    (unless (package-installed-p package)
      (package-install package)))
      myPackages)

;; BASIC CUSTOMIZATION
;; --------------------------------------

(setq inhibit-startup-message t) ;; hide the startup message
(load-theme 'material t) ;; load material theme
(global-linum-mode t) ;; enable line numbers globally

;; init.el ends here

但是,这会引发错误:

Warning (initialization): An error occurred while loading ‘/Users/adamg/.emacs’:

File error: http://melpa.org/packages/better-defaults-20160601.1219.el, Not found

To ensure normal operation, you should investigate and remove the
cause of the error in your initialization file.  Start Emacs with
the ‘--debug-init’ option to view a complete error backtrace.

运行emacs --debug-init返回:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-error "http://melpa.org/packages/better-defaults-20160601.1219.el" "Not found")
  signal(file-error ("http://melpa.org/packages/better-defaults-20160601.1219.el" "Not found"))

  package-install(better-defaults)

  (lambda (package) (if (package-installed-p package) nil (package-install package)))(better-defaults)

当我将上面的代码放在单独的init.el文件中时,它不会引发错误,但是也不会更改启动屏幕或主题。有人可以指出我做错了什么吗?

答案 0 :(得分:2)

您的软件包存储库内容(本地缓存)已过时,Emacs尝试下载better软件包的旧版本,而不再是现有版本。

据我所知,问题出在这部分:

(when (not package-archive-contents)
  (package-refresh-contents))

基本上,仅当完全没有信息时(才一次,一次)才刷新存储库中的软件包内容。我认为最好一直保持最新状态,即使Emacs启动需要花费几秒钟的时间。

建议-删除软件包刷新条件,将这两行更改为简单:

(package-refresh-contents)

哦,简要介绍配置文件-Emacs尝试从~/.emacs~/.emacs.d/init.el文件中以该顺序(仅从其中之一)加载配置。因此,如果您拥有.emacs文件,则init.el将被忽略。这就是为什么您对init.el所做的更改不会引发任何错误-Emacs忽略了该文件,仅使用了.emacs

(顺便说一句。Emacs还会记住使用了哪个文件,因此当您使用Emacs内置工具自定义配置时,更改将转到正确的文件)
