seem having syntax error with nim version 1.5.x

[ghost]

hello,

while running it I immediately got error :

nimble run vim3
     Error: Could not read package info file in /home/francois/tmp/vim_cubed/vim3.nimble;
        ...   Reading as ini file failed with: 
        ...     Invalid section: .
        ...   Evaluating as NimScript file failed with: 
        ...     ../nimscriptapi_1323085986.nim(74, 3) Error: identifier expected, but got '('
        ... printPkgInfo() failed.

so I check my nim & nimble versions & ensure to get the last stable one then

nim --version
Nim Compiler Version 1.5.1 [Linux: amd64]

nimble --version
nimble v0.12.0 compiled at 2020-11-13 11:53:31

but error remain the same.

Did you build nim from source? The latest stable version is 1.4.0

I'm having the same issue but on 1.4.2. I used snap to install the latest version.

nimble run vim3
     Error: Could not read package info file in /home/yang/Documents/Libraries/vim_cubed/vim3.nimble;
        ...   Reading as ini file failed with: 
        ...     Invalid section: .
        ...   Evaluating as NimScript file failed with: 
        ...     error: unknown command "e", see 'snap help'.
        ... printPkgInfo() failed.

Update: my issue seems to be with snap and nimble, not this repo specifically.
