[Bug]: Dependency on package: package_info_plus

[thorito]

Please check the following before submitting a new issue.

• [x] I have searched the existing issues.
• [x] I have carefully read the documentation and verified I have added the required platform specific configuration.

Please select affected platform(s)

• [x] Android
• [x] iOS
• [x] Linux
• [x] macOS
• [x] Web
• [x] Windows

Steps to reproduce

Use the updated version of package_info_plus in your project: ^9.0.0 and geolocator: ^14.0.2

Expected results

Be able to compile using the new version of package_info_plus

Actual results

I get the following error:

Because every version of tracker from path depends on geolocator ^14.0.2 and no versions of geolocator match >14.0.2 <15.0.0, every version of tracker from path requires geolocator 14.0.2.
And because geolocator 14.0.2 depends on geolocator_linux ^0.2.3, every version of tracker from path requires geolocator_linux ^0.2.3.
Because geolocator_linux 0.2.3 depends on package_info_plus ^8.0.0 and no versions of geolocator_linux match >0.2.3 <0.3.0, geolocator_linux ^0.2.3 requires package_info_plus ^8.0.0.
Thus, every version of tracker from path requires package_info_plus ^8.0.0.
And because every version of common from path depends on package_info_plus ^9.0.0, tracker from path is incompatible with common from path.
So, because worker depends on both common from path and tracker from path, version solving failed.
Failed to update packages.

Same issue here package_info_plus was recently updated with the more modern toolset

Note: This release has breaking changes.

- On Android plugin now requires the following:

  - Android Gradle Plugin >=8.12.1
  - Gradle wrapper >=8.13
  - Kotlin 2.2.0

- DOCS(all): replace MacOS by macOS in package READMEs ([#3658](https://github.com/fluttercommunity/plus_plugins/issues/3658)). ([72b6234c](https://github.com/fluttercommunity/plus_plugins/commit/72b6234c25315c30d8efc9f15a9258b0bb7273a8))
- BREAKING FEAT(package_info_plus): Change Android compile SDK, update Android build config ([#3674](https://github.com/fluttercommunity/plus_plugins/issues/3674)). ([78c2b742](https://github.com/fluttercommunity/plus_plugins/commit/78c2b7420bcc943b5f46a22285e750a0dc58e5bb))

same here

We are also getting same issue when going to update package_info_plus 9.0.0. Please fix it

[blondie63]

Same issue for me! no problem with 14.0.1

Resolving dependencies... Because geolocator >=14.0.2 depends on geolocator_linux ^0.2.3 which depends on package_info_plus ^8.0.0, geolocator >=14.0.2 requires package_info_plus ^8.0.0. So, because ashbooking_mobile depends on both package_info_plus ^9.0.0 and geolocator ^14.0.2, version solving failed.

While waiting for this to be fixed upstream, anyone stumbling upon this issue can temporarily override the dependency with this:

dependency_overrides:
  # Waiting for https://github.com/baseflow/flutter-geolocator/issues/1751
  geolocator_linux:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/easyhour/flutter-geolocator.git
      path: geolocator_linux

Thanks @mauriziopinotti . Just a quick question regarding the "linux" suffix. Is this only for linux?

Yes, quoting from https://pub.dev/documentation/geolocator_linux/latest/ "The official Linux implementation of the geolocator plugin by Baseflow".

When will it be updated to support the latest version of the package_info_plus?
