Error: cannot open file: httpauthpkg/base on nim 0.20

[travisstaloch]

I have nim 0.20.0 on windows 10. When I try to nimble install httpauth@#head, I get: Error: cannot open file: subexes

I see that subexes has been moved to the nim graveyard but can still be installed with nimble install subexes.

output below:

So I cloned this repo and changed httpauth.nimble(12) to

requires "nim >= 0.19.0", "libsodium", "subexes"

which got past the error.

Then, there is an error: httpauth.nim(25, 19) Error: cannot open file: httpauthpkg/base

It seems that all the files in httpauthpkg/ aren't being copied by nimble install. Any ideas? I forked the repo with these changes and also tried adding a copyFiles task which runs after install. But that doesn't seem to work.

I'm getting the same error when I try to deploy to heroku on ubuntu 16.

Thanks for sharing this and for any ideas you might have.

It should be fixed in https://github.com/FedericoCeratto/nim-httpauth/commit/7959aa6a5757481dca9928f9507295b03a44455b - please confirm :)
