I have problems adding the current release of this package:

$ mrt add bootstrap-select
smart.json changed.. installing from smart.json

✓ bootstrap-select
    tag: https://github.com/amrali/bootstrap-select-meteor.git#v1.5.4

There was a problem checking out tag: v1.5.4

It first looks like it went alright but then throws the above error message. This is a permanent error, I tried it multiple times. Can't see what is wrong there.

No problems with older versions.

$ mrt add bootstrap-select --pkg-version 1.5.2

I'm unable to reproduce this issue.

amr::Dreadnought test $ mrt add bootstrap-select

Stand back while Meteorite does its thing

Ok, everything's ready. Here comes Meteor!

bootstrap-select: A custom select/multiselect for @twitter bootstrap using button dropdown.

Yeah, this looks weird. I don't even know what could possibly go wrong there... I created a new test project to make sure it's not a conflict in my other project. Same thing :-/

me:~$ meteor create testproject
testproject: created.

To run your new app:
   cd testproject
   meteor
me:~$ cd testproject/
me:~/testproject$ mrt add bootstrap-select
✓ bootstrap-select
    tag: https://github.com/amrali/bootstrap-select-meteor.git#v1.5.4

Maybe it is a Meteorite bug, what's the output of mrt --version?

udondan commented 10 years ago

Good point. I upgraded to the recent version. That didn't fix it but it is a little more chatty now:

✓ bootstrap-select
    tag: https://github.com/amrali/bootstrap-select-meteor.git#v1.5.4
ERROR: 1 Command failed: error: pathspec 'v1.5.4' did not match any file(s) known to git.

STDOUT:

Seems to be a git problem. I'll look into this over the weekend and try to find the source.

So yep, there must have been something broken with meteorite.

I found https://github.com/mangasocial/meteor-accounts-ui-bootstrap-3/issues/42 and the suggestion worked here as well:

rm -rf ~/.meteorite
sudo npm uninstall -g meteorite
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node_modules/meteorite/  # to be sure
sudo npm install -g meteorite

I will file a bug report at the meteorite page.

Thanks for your feedback @amrali!
