Subject: 27.0.50; emacs daemon and “package” often inserts [I when opening file
--text follows this line--
When using this .emacs/init.el:
(custom-set-variables
'(package-archives
'(package-selected-packages
'(pager)))
(require 'package)
(unless package--initialized (package-initialize t))
(unless package-archive-contents
(package-refresh-contents))
(dolist (package package-selected-packages)
(unless (package-installed-p package)
(package-install package)))
And starting emacs like this:
cd .emacs && pkill emacs && rm -rf elpa auto-save-list && pgrep emacs ||
/usr/local/bin/emacs --no-site-file --no-splash --daemon
And then opening a file with for example:
emacsclient -nw -c init.el
At the cursor the string "[I" is inserted.
The pager package I selected for this case is because it was the most
primitive package I could find. Any other package triggered the same
behaviour. As you can see it's not even initialized.
