I would like to report what appears to be a bug in package-vc.el where emacs is unable to load this file if package-vc-selected-packages variable is not-nil. To see this problem I created following simple test file: 

$ cat ~/demo-package-vc-issue

(setq package-vc-selected-packages
      '((treemacs-projectile
         :lisp-dir "src/extra"
         :main-file "treemacs-projectile.el"
         :url "https://github.com/Alexander-Miller/treemacs")))

(setq debug-on-error t)

(load-library "package-vc.el")

Following shows some background information.

I built scratch/package-vc-fixes branch, and verified that the problem reported by me is gone. I would like to ask a follow-up question. I'm trying to use package-vc as a replacement for straight.el in my setup. I've been using straight.el within spacemacs for some time. If you are interested, the details can be found at https://github.com/emacs18/spacemacs/tree/sm-straight The key thing I have not yet figured out is how to activate packages installed by package-vc when emacs starts up. Package activation is done by the latter part of package-vc--unpack-1 function. Would it be possible to split out activation as a separate function?

Would it be possible to split out > activation as a separate function? Package "activation" (in the sense of `package-activate', checking for dependencies, adding the right directories to the load path, loading the info manuals, ...) is still handled by package.el. package-vc.el is firmly based on package.el, but just provides an alternative to fetching source code. That is also why package-vc doesn't need to be loaded for source packages to be usable -- which speeds up the initialisation. The functionality of `package-vc--unpack-1' is exposed via `package-vc-rebuild', but I don't think that that is what you need. If you are having issues with the activation of source packages, then that is a bug we have to understand and resolve.

It uses use-package to install typically hundreds of packages. straight.el is an alternative to package.el where packages are installed by cloning git (or other) repositories and building packages from source directly. This is similar to package-vc.el. The key difference is that the git clone directories are not added to load-path. Rather a new directory is created where symlinks to *.el files are used plus byte compiled files, e.g., following would be added to load-path: $ cd .../spacemacs/.local/straight/build-29.0-102921/dash/ $ ls -l total 360 -rw-rw-r-- 1 kimr kimr 2936 Oct 29 22:04 dash-autoloads.el lrwxrwxrwx 1 kimr kimr 63 Oct 29 22:04 dash.el -> /home/kimr/.emacs.d/sm-ms/.local/straight/repos/dash.el/dash.el -rw-rw-r-- 1 kimr kimr 147632 Oct 29 22:04 dash.elc -rw-rw-r-- 1 kimr kimr 198812 Oct 29 22:04 dash.info lrwxrwxrwx 1 kimr kimr 65 Oct 29 22:04 dash.texi -> /home/kimr/.emacs.d/sm-ms/.local/straight/repos/dash.el/dash.texi -rw-rw-r-- 1 kimr kimr 617 Oct 29 22:04 dir $ I have an update to my previous email.

Instead I would like to share that package-vc seems to work fine except for packages that house *.el files within a sub-directory, e.g., magit or git-commit packages which use lisp sub-directories. For these packages I either have to install magit package using package.el (even though I installed it via package-vc) or I would have to manually add the lisp sub-directory to load-path in my startup file. If I do that, then magit and git-commit packages installed via package-vc work. Following is what I currently have in my startup file to be able to use package-vc installed magit and git-commit packages. (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/sm-my/elpa/29.0/site/git-commit/lisp") (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/sm-my/elpa/29.0/site/magit/lisp") In my typical spacemacs setup, I have between 300 and 400 hundred packages installed. I think more than half were installed via package-vc and rest were installed via pacakge.el. I'm trying to see if I can use package-vc to install all packages.

If I had to guess, I'd say you are using MELPA and it is probably the first entry in `package-archives'? If so, the issue would be that MELPA doesn't provide any public package specifications, the way GNU ELPA and NonGNU ELPA do. What is probably required is some kind of a heuristic to detect a lisp directory, but I haven't come up with a good solution to that yet. > In my typical spacemacs setup, I have between 300 and 400 hundred > packages installed.

It would be possible in theory, but note that package-vc installs dependencies using regular tarballs installations.
