[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hey, I just double checked to not cause unnecessary confusion:

Crated new user on arch to get empty home:

used same .emacs as before, but without (setq gnutls-algorithm-priority 
"NORMAL:-VERS-TLS1.3"). After refreshing package list i can find 
undo-tree in gnu repos. When i try to install get the same bad request bug.

After adding the line (setq gnutls-algorithm-priority "NORMAL:-VERS-TLS1.3")

use-package downloads the package properly at startup and everything 
works fine.

Can i provide additional debug info?
Still not sure tho if its some dumb mistake in my os.
