Hi,
on GNU Emacs 24.3.1
It seems that, whenever package.el installed some packages, the history 
(last couple of visited files) is spammed with files opened during the 
installation process. I believe this is not desired. The history 
function should be turned off just before performing installations and 
turned on after finishing the installation procedure.

Greetings

Torsten

so is already fixed for the next release. To check, try
