Attempting to install the projectile package from melpa leads to the
following (abbreviated) Backtrace:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument symbolp 63)
  loaddefs-generate--compute-prefixes("projectile")
  loaddefs-generate--parse-file("/home/brent/.emacs.d/elpa/projectile-20240205.1021/projectile.el" "/home/brent/.emacs.d/elpa/projectile-20240205.1021/projectile-autoloads.el" nil)

I can replicate this with emacs -Q:

(require 'package)
(package-initialize)
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/"))
(package-install 'projectile)

However, I think the real issue is with loading the package, not the
installation. I originally hit this when trying to load the package with
use-package, but then hit this version when trying to uninstall and
reinstall. use-package reports this instead:

use-package-autoload-keymap: use-package: Cannot load package.el: projectile

when I try to switch projects with my projectile-command-map.

I noticed a couple of recent changes when grepping the git log for
loaddefs (Feb 3), so I'm going to try to revert to a version prior to
that to see if that helps.

Let me know if you need any more info,
Brent Westbrook
