it says "If ‘package-initialize’ is called twice during Emacs startup,
signal a warning, since this is a bad idea except in highly
advanced use cases.  To suppress the warning, remove the
superfluous call to ‘package-initialize’ from your init-file.  If
you have code which must run before ‘package-initialize’, put
that code in the early init-file."

i ran package-initialize in my .emacs and checked c-h e and did not find a
warning.  however, without running it, it still seems to have been run.
