Cover the startup archive paths and refresh behavior. This locks down the local-first archive setup, online archive opt-in, cache freshness checks, and priority ordering so package startup changes are easier to reason about later.
fix: expand local ELPA mirror paths with expand-file-name2026-05-04T00:10:44+00:00Craig Jenningsc@cjennings.net2026-05-04T00:10:44+00:00urn:sha1:9acaf3899aedb69300a29a0d0c8b468e5f4ad729
`(concat user-home-dir ".elpa-mirrors/")` was producing `/home/cjennings.elpa-mirrors/` because `getenv HOME` doesn't return a trailing slash on Linux. The local mirrors were silently dropping out of `package-archives` because `file-accessible-directory-p` couldn't find the bogus path.
I replaced the `concat` calls for `elpa-mirror-location` and `localrepo-location` with `expand-file-name`, which handles the slash for us. I also lifted the four per-archive subdirs into their own constants (`elpa-mirror-gnu-location`, `nongnu`, `melpa`, `stable-melpa`) so the archive registration block stops splicing `concat` strings inline.
I added `tests/test-early-init-paths.el`. It loads `early-init.el` against a temp HOME with the package side effects stubbed and asserts each constant and each `package-archives` entry resolves to the right path.
