Missing dependecy "ido-completing-read+"?

luciferasm commented 6 years ago

Amx doesn't work with ido for me on GNU Emacs 25.3.1. To reproduce:

Start with a clean /.emacs.d/elpa/ and emacs -Q
In *scratch*-pad, eval (setq-default package-archives '(("gnu" . "https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/") ("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/")))
M-x package-install \<return> amx
M-x ido-mode
M-x amx now produces the error message: "Feature ‘ido-completing-read+’ is required for backend"

So, there seem to be a missing dependency ido-completing-read+ when installing from Melpa.

ido-completing-read+ is an optional dependency, since amx is also usable with normal emacs completion and ivy. I suppose amx should at least produce a warning and fall back to standard emacs completion instead of throwing an error if the optional dependencies aren't met.

This error should now be presented as a warning, and you will get standard emacs completion instead.
