[Message part 2 (message/rfc822, inline)]
Hello,
I've been meaning to report this for some time. I really think this
should be fixed in Emacs 29 before it ships.
src/emacs -Q # Emacs 29
M-x package-install RET eglot RET
Echoes "No match", even though eglot 1.14 is available from GNU ELPA.
That's because Eglot is a :core ELPA package and it's already in Emacs
29, so package.el thinks there is nothing to install.
Evaluating (package-install 'eglot) also doesn't work. Errors with
"'eglot' is already installed"
In Emacs 28, both these alternatives work as expected (because Eglot
isn't a :core package there).
It's not impossible to upgrade in Emacs 29, of course. The only way I
know is to M-x package-list-packages, find Eglot 1.14 in the list, mark
it with 'i' and confirm installation with 'x'. But it is very awkward.
João
