Subject: 29.0.90; package-install inserts package directory into load-path 
 twice.
Date: Sat, 20 May 2023 16:45:34 -0500

1) trash ~/.emacs.d     ;; i.e. remove .emacs.d (optional)

2) emacs -Q   (the -Q isn’t necessary,  I’ve observed the problem every way that I’ve started emacs)

3) in *scratch* buffer, type and execute "(package-insert ‘ack)”       (or run M-x package-install or install from M-x list-packages.
Any and every package I’ve installed produces the problem, ack is just easy to type)

4) C-h v  load-path    (that is, run describe-variable on load-path to see its value, note the first two entries)

Its value is
("/Users/todd/.emacs.d/elpa/ack-1.11" "/Users/todd/.emacs.d/elpa/ack-1.11/" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/vc" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/use-package" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/url" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/textmodes" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/progmodes" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/play" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/org" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/nxml" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/net" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/mh-e" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/mail" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/leim" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/language" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/international" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/image" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/gnus" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/eshell" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/erc" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/emulation" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/emacs-lisp" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/cedet" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/calendar" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/calc" "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/emacs-plus <at> 29/29.0.60/share/emacs/29.0.90/lisp/obsolete")

5) Unlike Emacs 28, two entries for package ack have been
added to load-path (see the first two entries). These are both for the
same directory (one has a trailing "/" the other doesn’t, but both strings are equivalent paths to the directory for Emacs).

6) It doesn't matter how Emacs is started with differing command line
args. It doesn't matter if package-install is invoked with M-x in the
mini-buffer or (package-install ...) executed in the *scratch* buffer or
(use-package ... :ensure t) in an init.el file. It doesn't matter which
package is being installed. It doesn't matter how many packages are
installed. In all cases duplicate directory names are
added as entries to load-path for *every* package installed in
Emacs 29.0.90.

7) Thank You!
