Make Color uninstallable on julia 0.4 #105

Closed timholy closed 8 years ago

timholy commented 8 years ago

It's deprecated in favor of Colors.

Assuming no objections here, once merged I'll tag a new release, then delete all older versions from METADATA.jl.

tkelman commented 8 years ago

No, do not delete old versions. Adding the version ceiling to them should be okay though if there are no packages that still need to migrate.

tkelman commented 8 years ago

Honestly a better approach would be doing this gently, throwing a deprecation warning for long enough that all dependent packages can be fixed. If the package is loadable and mostly functions, we don't need to be so forceful as to make packages uninstallable right away.

timholy commented 8 years ago

It's been throwing a deprecation warning ever since late August.

But people don't seem to like this. I can revert if you really want.

tkelman commented 8 years ago

It's okay on master of the package but not ready for metadata yet
