I had found Options->Customize->Update Packages but failed to notice Options->Customize->Emacs->Packages->... I have installed roughly every package in the world. When I did Options->Customize->Update Packages it went astray and blonked at some point. I suspect this has to do with old packages laying raound in my /tmp and package-get-remove-copy being nil. Also, the first time around I got Symbol's function definition is void: package-get-custom I'll see if I can reproduce this.
