Use-package: loading fails for latest version of emacs-git

[kpbochenek]

Error code is:

(setq tabulated-list-format
        ;; The sum of column width is 80 characters:
        #[("Package" 25 t)
          ("Status" 13 t)
          ("Last Event" 23 t)
          ("Time" 10 t)])
  (tabulated-list-init-header))

Error:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-read-syntax "Invalid byte-code object")
  read(#<buffer  *load*-898483>)

(you can paste mentioned code to fresh latest emacs and eval it)

This error unrelated to use-package, I think.

I haven't noticed this syntax so far, what does #[..] means?

[kpbochenek]

Also for others hitting this problem, one workaround to move forward is to comment:
(define-derived-mode use-package-statistics-mode tabulated-list-mode ...)
in use-package-core.el

Is a way to enter a byte-code objects: https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Byte_002dCode-Objects.html

thank you @kpbochenek your are right

Yes, the patch is good. Sorry @arichiardi, my comment was actually unrelated.

What I don't understand is that this line is two (!) years old https://github.com/jwiegley/use-package/blame/0ba3071cda77957822bfe3e58009375f395777f4/use-package-core.el#L1033

This means it was broken for two years?

[kpbochenek]

Yes
