Not sure what to say Jambunathan:
- I type C-h v and a blue input field (Minibuffer I assume?) appears:
"Describe variable:" I type package-archives and hit RET, and it says [no
match]. It doesn't report anything.
- Where would I delete tromey.com from load-path? It isn't in my ~/.emacs
file or ~/elisp
- M-x locate-library RET package RET returns "No library package in search
path". I'll guess that that doesn't make sense to you either. Where would
M-x package-list-packages be getting the list from?
