Add note that cobalt 0.17.5 has not been released, which will cause local build problems #113

Closed quietlychris closed 2 years ago

As of writing (9 December 2021), cobalt v0.17.5 is not publicly available through the Releases page, and the most recent v0.17.4 throws an error when attempting to build. It took a few minutes to figure out why (I thought maybe the README page had a typo on the version number) before I looked in the CI config file to find that Cobalt was actually being installed from the Git repository using

$ cargo install \
            --git https://github.com/cobalt-org/cobalt.rs \
            --rev 6047852d62aa505a4dc6a82715485d465be5c596

Until the next version is released (although Cobalt has a history of regular releases, I can not find a planned schedule), a note should be added to the README on how to install the required version.

(I will submit a PR accordingly, but wanted to put this out there in case anyone had this issue in the meantime)

This is correct. For context: the footer includes a "last updated" date that maps to the date that the site was last regenerated, and cobalt [coincidentally] added support for that in the past week via https://github.com/cobalt-org/cobalt.rs/pull/941

While not urgent, I'll comment over there that we're already depending on it and would love a new cobalt release with this change.
