Elpaca 8ed8347 HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD
installer: 0.12
emacs-version: GNU Emacs 30.2 (build 1, aarch64-apple-darwin24.6.0, NS appkit-2575.70 Version 15.7.4 (Build 24G517))

git --version: git version 2.53.0
I recently upgraded elpaca to 0.12. Thanks for the update!
But now no info files for installed packages get added to the system.
After my init.el file is loaded and Elpaca is done, this is the value of Info-directory-list:
("/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/info" "/opt/homebrew/share/info"
"/opt/homebrew/share/info" "/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/info/"
"/usr/local/share/info/")
The output of elpaca-log doesn't show any errors.
I've looked at the code a bit and it appears that elpaca--finalize-queue is responsible for adding things to the info path:
[...]
(unless (or elpaca-after-init-time ; Already run.
elpaca--waiting ; Won't know if final queue until after waiting.
(not (eq (elpaca-q<-type q) 'init)) ; Already run.
(and next (eq (elpaca-q<-type next) 'init))) ; More init queues.
(elpaca-split-queue)
(with-eval-after-load 'info
(info-initialize)
(cl-loop for (_id . e) in (elpaca--queued) do
(when-let* ((build (elpaca<-build-dir e))
(dir (expand-file-name "dir" build))
((file-exists-p dir))
((not (member build Info-directory-list))))
(push build Info-directory-list))))I spent some time stepping through the code with the debugger. (Use case: delete elpaca/builds/foo and re-evaluate the use-package form that installs package foo.) The body of the unless form doesn't get executed because the types of both q and next are 'init.
I've read the reddit post about the refactored elpaca but maybe I have neglected to update something.
