Jun 18, 2019 at 21:57 comment added Tobias As I already mentioned you can try to replace https by http in package-archives. It is clear that this is a security hole but in some environments it is unavoidable. There is some additional protection with pgp keys. So it is bad but not that bad;-).
Jun 18, 2019 at 20:53 comment added 76 Pinto @Tobias: That appears to be it. The threads you linked to inspired me to check the Messages buffer, which confirmed that download of the ELPA list fails while trying to open a TLS connection. The latter thread is very long. I tried a workaround from near the bottom of it but without success, so I'll have to find time to pore through the thread carefully.<br /><br /> Edit: I used the link from your first comment to download the .el file and install it manually. It seems to work. I had for a while been fooled into thinking it had not worked because installed packages are sorted separately.
Jun 18, 2019 at 16:10 comment added Tobias See these two discussions: melpa-issue, aquamacs-issue. In the second thread there are some solutions proposed.
Jun 18, 2019 at 16:08 comment added Tobias Are there any mepla-stable packages listed in the output of package-list-packages? Sometimes there is an issue with the secure protocol and one has to use http in place of https.
Jun 18, 2019 at 15:23 comment added 76 Pinto @Tobias: I used the URL you provided to download the .el file, then used package-install-file on the downloaded file. Emacs appeared to be doing stuff, then a Markdown menu appeared, so I guess markdown-mode is now installed. Thank you. Oddly, however, markdown still doesn't appear in M-x: list-packages. Also, this result implies that there are probably other packages that are not appearing in the list—e.g., markdown2, as I mentioned in the question.
