I added both to my list: (add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/") t) (add-to-list 'package-archives '("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/")) Now I wonder, I get two sets of packages. Now I wonder what to pick. - Would melpa generally be newer than Marmalade? - Is it ok to have some packages from melpa and some from marmalade? Does anyone have experience having both repos? Thank you On the side, there is a related post: http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/2969/is-it-possible-to-use-both-melpa-and-melpa-stable-at-the-same-time Leo Ufimtsev | Intern Software Engineer @ Eclipse Team *1 http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/2969/is-it-possible-to-use-both-melpa-and-melpa-stable-at-the-same-time ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

So you could load all your packages from MELPA-stable and just take one from MELPA. "package-pinned-packages" does the work here. In the scenario above, you need to pin ALL of the packages in to melpa-stable except for the one in MELPA. I wish they changed MELPA version numbers to all be very low versions but that's how it is at the moment. Phil ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
