`cargo bitbake` doesn't work for packages which depend on env_logger...

[mortie]

Running cargo bitbake in a project which depends on env_logger (at least version 0.11.5) produces this error:

error: failed to select a version for `env_logger`.
    ... required by package `example-project v0.1.0 (/Users/martin/example-project)`
versions that meet the requirements `^0.11.5` are: 0.11.5

the package `example-project` depends on `env_logger`, with features: `anstream` but `env_logger` does not have these features.
 It has an optional dependency with that name, but but that dependency uses the "dep:" syntax in the features table, so it does not have an implicit feature with that name.

Hello, I am experiencing the same problem; I've replicated the repro steps and followed the commits of both Oct 18 and Jan 8 and used the rust and cargo version 1.80 but it still doesn't work, providing this error message:

error: failed to select a version for `env_logger`.
    ... required by package `example_project v0.1.0 (/home/usr/projects/example_project)`
versions that meet the requirements `^0.11` are: 0.11.7

the package `quantum-manager` depends on `env_logger`, with features: `anstream` but `env_logger` does not have these features.
 It has an optional dependency with that name, but but that dependency uses the "dep:" syntax in the features table, so it does not have an implicit feature with that name.

Any help, please? Thank you

@MirkoDonnarumma Unfortunately the cargo-bitbake maintainers haven't made a new crates.io release yet, so the version you're running is basically obsolete. You can install the latest git revision by doing cargo install --git https://github.com/meta-rust/cargo-bitbake.git

I run in the same error...

@paolobarbolini thank you for the explanation, even in doing so (as I can remember) it didn't fix the problem. I ended up removing env_logger for the moment, as it's not in priority.

As for what I understood, anstream is just a crate for writing colored text to a terminal.
That being said, I tried different options, such as trying to use ansi_term and even doing something as such:

[dependencies]
env_logger = { version = "0.11.8", default-features = false }

[features]
anstream = ["env_logger/ansi_term"]

But it didn't work. I am out of ideas and for now I won't lose anymore time on this problem.

@mtows I hope someone else can resolve this in the future.

In the meantime, happy coding fellas.
