klajo / eunit_addons Goto Github PK

Hello,

I'm getting a compile error trying to build eunit_addons. It's actually edown that's failing to compile.
I'm running on Erlang/OTP R18.

==> edown (compile)
deps/edown/src/edown_doclet.erl:116: field packages undefined in record doclet_gen
deps/edown/src/edown_doclet.erl:118: field filemap undefined in record doclet_gen
Compiling deps/edown/src/edown_doclet.erl failed

Looking at the dependency in rebar.config, it's pointing to the esl/edown repository. This one seems to be very out of date. One of the open issues mentions that the latest master should fix the issue, but it does not.

However, the esl version of edown is several months behind the version it was originally forked from; ie, the original edown repo has been updated, but esl's has not.

The fix for me was to adjust the dependency's path to edown as such:
{edown, ".*", {git, "git://github.com/uwiger/edown.git", {tag,"0.4"}}}

(Side note that I couldn't get rebar to check out the new path, so I manually updated origin for the deps/edown/.git/config to uwiger's, did a git fetch and then a git reset --hard origin/master. I was then able to build eunit_addons correctly.)
