Unable to get current or via use-package

[Loris Bennett]

Hi,

After Emacs started nagging me with the following

  IMPORTANT: please install Org from GNU ELPA as Org ELPA will close
  before Org 9.6

I set  in init.el

  (setq package-archives
        '(("gnu" . "http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/";)
          ("nongnu" . "http://elpa.nongnu.org/nongnu/";)
          ("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/";)))

and have

  (use-package org
    :ensure org-contrib)

I moved the old-plus-contrig ELPA folder out the way. However, I now
just get the built-in version of Org:
  
  Org mode version 9.3 (release_9.3 @ /usr/share/emacs/27.1/lisp/org/)

Is this a problem use-package has with built-in packages, as described here

  https://github.com/jwiegley/use-package/issues/319

?  Or am I doing something wrong?  Or do I just need to install via M-x
list-packages (bearing in mind the caveat about not visiting an org file
beforehand)?

Cheers,

Loris
