"为什么在启动 emacs 时出现“错误（el-get）：安装瞬态时”？"

Question

I very suddenly starting experiencing a problem while loading emacs. Emacs now takes a very long time to load and when it does, I get the warnings:

Generating transient.info
make[1]: makeinfo: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [transient.info] Error 1
make: *** [info] Error 2

Answer 1

I was able to fix this error by creating an early-init.el file and moving the following lines to it:

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/el-get/el-get")

(unless (require 'el-get nil 'noerror)
  (with-current-buffer
      (url-retrieve-synchronously
       "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dimitri/el-get/master/el-get-install.el")
    (goto-char (point-max))
    (eval-print-last-sexp)))

(add-to-list 'el-get-recipe-path "~/.emacs.d/el-get-user/recipes")
(el-get 'sync)

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/el-get/el-get")
