Bower install fails due to description being too long #165

Closed jmfarina closed 9 years ago

jmfarina commented 9 years ago

When attempting to install, bower (latest stable version, 1.4.1) fails and reports: "The description is too long. 140 characters should be more than enough". Remodal's description in bower.json is 154 characters long.

Hello, I'm new to bower so I'm not quite sure how all this plays along, but it seems that some bower 1.4.1 versions use bower.json 0.4.0 (https://github.com/bower/json/blob/0.4.0/lib/json.js) and others, like the one I have that's failing, use 0.5.0, which is the one in which they introduced this validation: https://github.com/bower/json/commit/fd39c5d2197ed21971dc4f1233a36473241965f7#diff-3f9d46363ce3a43200a9dfa6e3c9cf28. There's an issue filed in bower.json pleading for a reconsideration on this validation: https://github.com/bower/json/issues/22. But in the meanwhile, with version 0.5.0 of said library, it's not possible to install remodal (as well as other libraries, I gather).
