Breaking change in dependency #240

Closed bailer closed 4 years ago

bailer commented 4 years ago

Hello, when installing gx it fails due to breaking API changes in the 2.x versions of urfave/cli so the building and installation of this package fails. I'm quite new to go but I assume it's because of the lack of dependency version pinning. I solved it by initializing go modules in the source folder so it used the proper package of urfave/cli instead of the master branch.

I can't purpose a permanent solution since I'm not involved enough in this project and new to go development, I just stumbled upon this issue when trying to install ipfs/iptb and ipfs/iptb-plugins.

Please use go modules to build IPTB and the plugins.

(however, I am going to switch this package over to go mod to ensure this doesn't keep happening)
