Disabling connection to ELPA repository

Question

Is it possible at startup to disable the connection to the ELPA repositories?

I have

(when (>= emacs-major-version 24)
  (require 'package)
  (package-initialize)
  (add-to-list 'package-archives '("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/") t))

in my init.el and every time I start emacs, it does connect to the repositories. I would prefer to do that manually time to time.

Please answer your own question and accept the answer, so the question is removed from the unanswered list. — Drew, Nov 08 '14 at 03:15

Using the package-spec.el package makes the connection happen.

I removed it form my setup. I'm installing packages with my own code. See https://github.com/kototama/.emacs.d – z1naOK9nu8iY5A May 23 '16 at 09:43
