Hi – I’m not sure if this is a bug or user ineptitude, but when trying to use the package-vc functionality like so:

(setq package-vc-selected-packages
      '((capf-bibtex
         :url "https://github.com/mclear-tools/capf-bibtex.git"
         :branch "main")))

(package-vc-install-selected-packages)

I get the error package-vc--unpack: Wrong type argument: package-desc, nil. I’ve tried this with various other packages from github as well and get the same error. The above seems to be just like the example described in the info manual so I’m unsure what I could be doing wrong. I should also say that the package installs just fine using package-vc-install.

thanks,

Colin
