Fails to update ion-shell

[matthiaskrgr]

$ cargo install --git https://github.com/redox-os/ion
# wait for repo to update

$ cargo install-update -ag
Updating ion-shell from https://github.com/redox-os/ion
    Updating git repository `https://github.com/redox-os/ion`
error: could not find `ion-shell` in https://github.com/redox-os/ion

I'm not sure what the error is, manually running cargo install --git https://github.com/redox-os/ion --force does not throw any error for me. :/

Sorry for the delay, but the actual command executed by cargo-update is cargo install -f --git https://github.com/redox-os/ion ion-shell (note the ion-shell package spec), so if you could re-try with that (because I can not reproduce your results :v).

@nabijaczleweli caching issue on your side maybe?

Despite ion-shell not building on my machine I just faked it, and:

$ cat .cargo\.crates.toml
[v1]
"cargo-update 0.8.1 (registry+https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index)" = ["cargo-install-update-config.exe", "cargo-install-update.exe"]

Anyway, this is interesting, since redox-os/ion/Cargo.toml specifies name = "ion-shell", so I'm really confused WRT why that would happen.

Cannot install it on fresh OS after they made update 3 hours ago:

$ cargo install --git https://github.com/redox-os/ion
    Updating git repository `https://github.com/redox-os/ion`
error: multiple packages with binaries found: ion-shell, ion-shell-fuzz

$ cargo install --git https://github.com/redox-os/ion ion-shell
    Updating git repository `https://github.com/redox-os/ion`
error: could not find `ion-shell` in https://github.com/redox-os/ion

$ cargo install --git https://github.com/redox-os/ion ion
    Updating git repository `https://github.com/redox-os/ion`
error: could not find `ion` in https://github.com/redox-os/ion

It doesn't make any sense so it must be cargo bug.

[nabijaczleweli]

So, external and an issue there, right?

[mati865]

Yeah but it has to be reported either to ion-shell or cargo.
Ion-shell probably should be first pick.

[matthiaskrgr]

Since I made the ticket, ion moved to gitlab, as primary development place but I'm not sure if this makes a difference.

I too get a failure on
cargo install -f --git https://github.com/redox-os/ion ion-shell
or
cargo install -f --git https://github.com/redox-os/ion ion
however cloning the repo and running
cargo install --path=. --bin ion --force
seems to work...??
(which is strange since cargo install -f --git https://github.com/redox-os/ion --bin ion does not)

[mati865]

Oh well, looks like ticket belongs to cargo repo then 😕
@matthiaskrgr do you mind filling it?

[matthiaskrgr]

I looked through the preexisting cargo tickets, I think we might be a victim of this one: rust-lang/cargo#5495

[mati865]

After reinstalling from gitlab cargo-update -ag updates ion properly.

Reinstall command:

cargo install --git https://gitlab.redox-os.org/redox-os/ion ion-shell -f

[nabijaczleweli]

hmm I'm guessing this is resolved, then?
