[Question] why does this depend on two separate vdf parsers? #28

What the title says. What justifies the use of both steamy-vdf and keyvalues-parser/keyvalues-serde?

Apologies for the late reply. Must have missed the initial notification

Originally this crate used steamy-vdf; however, there have been some issues where it failed to parse some valid files (e.g. https://github.com/meh/steamy/issues/1). For this reason part, but not all, of the parsing was moved over to keyvalues-parser

It will be moved to only use keyvalues-parser/keyvalues-serde for the v2 release, but that also involves more-or-less a total rewrite of this crate, so that's still been in progress since I'm very short on time these days. If you don't want to pull in both parsers then you can just use the 2.0.0-alpha.0 release on crates.io which only uses keyvalues-parser/keyvalues-serde

I see. Thanks!
