Hi again,

My point was that, if you use `use-package', you should never
need to manually add anything to the `load-path' variable using
`add-to-list'. The `use-package' keyword :load-path handles this
for you.

I looked at your config.org; I'm not sure what `my-load-local-el'
does, but I'm sure you could replace it with `use-package'.

If you for any reason don't want to configure Org-mode via the
`use-package' function, you should replace `:ensure t' with
`:ensure nil' on any package that has Org-mode as a dependency;
setting :ensure to t means that `use-package' will automatically
install the package (as well as its dependencies).

Overall, though, you should either use `use-package' fully and
avoid manually loading packages outside of `use-package', or
abandon `use-package' entirely. In my opinion :-)

If anything's unclear, feel free to ask again.
