Installation failed: An error occurred while resolving packages

An error occurred while resolving packages: Package com.faster-games.whiskey@git+https://github.com/faster-games/whiskey.git has invalid dependencies or related test packages: com.faster-games.t4 (dependency): Package [com.faster-games.t4@1.4.1] cannot be found A re-import of the project may be required to fix the issue or a manual modification of G:/src/faster-games/whiskey-example/Packages/manifest.json file.

I am getting this error when installing with git locally

This is happening because unity doesn't support scopedRegistry deps in package.json.

The quickest option for fixing this yourself is with:

  "scopedRegistries": [
    {
      "name": "package.openupm.com",
      "url": "https://package.openupm.com",
      "scopes": [
        "com.faster-games.t4",
        "com.openupm"
      ]
    }
  ]

added to Packages\manifest.json after the dependencies section.

There are two less-than-ideal paths forward for the project:

• Clarify this process in the installation guide, and pester unity to support devDeps (since t4 is just a dev dep). Hell, while we're at it let's pester for scopedRegistry support.
• Comment out the t4 dep on main, uncomment for dev. This is yucky, but probably better for users.

[bengreenier]

We should check if openupm install does this for us (e.g. resolves t4 from it's registry as well).

[bengreenier]

openupm does install t4 for us, so the majority of users probably won't get this error at all. However, they may get #4.

As a result, some workaround for t4 as a direct dependency is still needed.
