### How to give more priority to MELPA over MELPA stable?
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the *minimal-emacs.d* configuration assigns specific priorities to various package archives, which determines the order in which packages are fetched from these archives. The default priorities are as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
```elisp
|
||||
(customize-set-variable 'package-archive-priorities '(("gnu" . 99)
|
||||
("nongnu" . 80)
|
||||
("melpa-stable" . 70)
|
||||
("melpa" . 0)))
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In this configuration, the GNU, Nongnu, and MELPA Stable archives (which contain stable versions of MELPA packages) are assigned higher priorities than MELPA (which contains the latest versions of packages). As a result, packages will be fetched from MELPA Stable before MELPA.
|
||||
|
||||
To prioritize MELPA over MELPA Stable, to access bleeding-edge package versions, you can adjust the `package-archive-priorities` variable accordingly:
|
||||
|
||||
```elisp
|
||||
(customize-set-variable 'package-archive-priorities '(("gnu" . 99)
|
||||
("nongnu" . 80)
|
||||
("melpa-stable" . 70)
|
||||
;; MELPA priority has been changed to 75
|
||||
("melpa" . 75)))
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This change increases MELPA's priority to 75, above MELPA Stable's priority of 70, ensuring that MELPA is preferred for package installations over MELPA Stable.
