I created a .emacs file just containing the code you posted: $ cat .emacs (require 'package) (add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/") t) (add-to-list 'package-archives '("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/") t) (package-initialize) (defvar my-packages '(icicles clojure-mode cider magit rubocop rspec-mode el-spec feature-mode graphene color-theme password-generator dockerfile-mode)) (dolist (p my-packages) (when (not (package-installed-p p)) (package-install p))) I then started emacs and ran 'M-x list-packages' without a problem. Are you sure there's nothing else in your various initialization files that could be interfering with this? Don't forget about default.el, site-start.el, and .Xresources. ('emacs -Q' excludes all of these.) > I'm attaching the cygcheck.out file per instructions. Thanks. Nothing in it jumps out at me as problematic.
