swift-sh: incompatible dependencies

ArgumentsParser appears to be the culprit, but I have a repo that uses SPMUtility as a dependency for the Command Line Module.

I am importing the library portion, but since the CLI module depends on SPMUtility, shift sh still throws up from a dependency conflict. I tried upgrading to Swift-5.0-branch, but that did not resolve the problem. One solution is to break my library into a Kit and CLI repo. I’d rather not do that.

Well, Swift 4.2.1 cannot compile the swift-5.0-branch of SwiftPM, because it cannot compile Swift 5 code. So there’s your “incompatible dependency”.

You should report the bug to Apple, SwiftPM’s error diagnostic is rubbish. It should say why the dependency is incompatible.

Edit: oh ok, you changed it to swift-4.2-branch.

Well I’m stumped, I cannot help further. Either way this isn’t a swift-sh issue.
