Unable to "nimble install" on osx
Opened this issue · 2 comments
Hi,
Is the nimble install method still working?
I am getting the below on osx 10.15:
davids-Mac-Pro-2:mosh dk$ nimble install Verifying dependencies for mosh@0.5.0 Info: Dependency on cligen@1.5.19 already satisfied Verifying dependencies for cligen@1.5.19 Installing mosh@0.5.0 Building mosh/mosh using c backend /Users/dk/mosh/src/convert.nim(1, 11) Warning: imported and not used: 'strformat' [UnusedImport] stack trace: (most recent call last) cligen.nim(370, 25) dispatchGen cligen.nim(197, 35) parseHelps /Users/dk/mosh/src/mosh.nim(20, 13) template/generic instantiation of dispatchfrom here /Users/dk/.nimble/pkgs2/cligen-1.5.19-bfe4f99a16ace2164fe40d40866e4951bed51820/cligen.nim(825, 14) template/generic instantiation ofdispatchCffrom here /Users/dk/.nimble/pkgs2/cligen-1.5.19-bfe4f99a16ace2164fe40d40866e4951bed51820/cligen.nim(812, 14) template/generic instantiation ofdispatchGen` from here

I can reproduce here and am generally inclined to fix this given its completely breaking ha. Give me a moment as its been a while since I touched nim.
Okay can you try now with nim version 2.0.0?
Should work.
I've also renamed the executable to bend because mosh is, as I've just learned, an already established UNIX tool.
