Latest commit incompatible with tabline

[psicho2000]

The currently latest commit 520776f leads to loading issues when used with tabline (tabline itself makes use of nvim-web-devicons):

E5108: Error executing lua ....vim/plugged/nvim-web-devicons/lua/nvim-web-devicons.lua:1682: attempt to call field 'nvim_create_augroup' (a nil value)
stack traceback:

Reproduction

  require('tabline').setup()
  END

a) use former commit 9061e2d

b) do not use tabline

Could you provide the output of nvim --version please?

[psicho2000]

$ nvim --version
NVIM v0.6.1
Build type: Release
LuaJIT 2.1.0-beta3
Compiled by team+vim@tracker.debian.org

Features: +acl +iconv +tui
See ":help feature-compile"

   system vimrc file: "$VIM/sysinit.vim"
  fall-back for $VIM: "/usr/share/nvim"

As suspected, you are using an outdated version of neovim. The latest stable release currently is 0.8 And the release which provides the api used in the commit is 0.7

Thanks for the answer, that closes the issue.
