This is what happens when I enter GNU ELPA and MELPA:

  Importing package-keyring.gpg...done
  Saving file /home/incal/ooa/dork.el...
  Wrote /home/incal/ooa/dork.el
  Package refresh done
  Packages that can be upgraded: 14; type ‘U’ to mark for upgrading.
  package-menu--mark-upgrades-1: Wrong type argument: package-desc, nil

I now believe this is a configuration/extension bug introduced
by YT, however the only thing I did with the intention of
changing anything around that/this area is some trivial Elisp
[last], so do you have any idea based on the above messages
where to look or what to look for? TIA.

Other than that it works fine what I can see.
