It's just my question. 

However, I also found something strange with package.el in emacs 24.
I installed command-frequency.el, info+.el, maxfame.el etc, by elpa.
Those package couldn't load properly if I add the following lines:

,------------------------------------------------
| (require 'command-frequency)
| (eval-after-load "info" '(require 'info+))
| (require 'maxframe)
| (add-hook 'window-setup-hook 'maximize-frame t)
`------------------------------------------------

to the file ~/.emacs. The *Bugtrace* reports that

If I adjust my dotemacs file as follows

,------------------------------------------------
| ;; (require 'command-frequency)
| ;; (eval-after-load "info" '(require 'info+))
| ;; (require 'maxframe)
| (add-hook 'window-setup-hook 'maximize-frame t)
`------------------------------------------------

then the maxframe.el works well while command-frequency.el and
info+.el didn't take any effects. I found those files named
<package>-<autoloads>.el when I entered into the elpa directory.
Based on these facts, I understand that 

* packages installed by elpa couldn't required in ~/.emacs since
  they would be autoloaded through the autoloads files. Furthermore,
  the autoloads files are generated from the ;;##autoload lines in
  package sources.
* maxfame.el works since the function, maximize-frame, is in the
  autoloads file.
* command-frequency.el doesn't work because there is nothing in its
  autoloads file. 

Is it right? 

Question: 

Is there a way to make info+.el, command-frequency.el run by elpa?
What can I do?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
