Cannot install `wakatime` in `Emacs 27.2` #55

The following error shows up while trying to install wakatime using the built-in package manager of emacs

counsel-gtags.el:400:1:Error: Symbol's value as variable is void: counsel-gtags--prompts-alist

I couldn't find a way to create a plugin for emacs here

OS : Windows 21H1 (stable) Emacs: 27.2 Spacemacs: 0.300.0 (development)

We haven't tried the built-in package manager. Can you try installing wakatime with MELPA?

MELPA is just a repository for the built in package manager.

The error above is form compiling counsel-gtags.el which probably is a part of some other package and isn't dependency of this package so it is an unrelated error message.

Usually a compilation error in an unrelated package does not affect the installation of another package unless it is a dependency.
