Missing async package in some Emacs versions #56

Closed jgrzebyta closed 7 years ago

jgrzebyta commented 7 years ago

I installed Emacs 25.1 from PPA kelleyk/emacs on Linux Mint 18.1 and when installed sparql-mode (the latest) had error about missing async package. It was enough to install async through packages mode.

On the other side I have no such error in my Ubuntu installation on the other computer. I will give more details in a few days.

I forgot to remove the require. I have removed the dependency on the async package as the reason for using it got fixed in emacs proper.

Thank you for the report.

I do not know about the kellyk/emacs PPA, but if they update their version now it should be fine.

I looked over the kelleyk PPA and I don't think it was them who messed up. It is probably that on your ubuntu installation the async package was already installed by some other package or an older version of sparql-mode. Since I removed the dependency, but forgot to remove the require, and you installed on a new machine you didn't have the async package installed. That is why you got the error.
