Compatibility Symfony 8 and gedmo/doctrine-extensions

[artemvolt]

Hello!

I am trying to use this guide for symfony. But when i install gedmo/doctrine-extensions for symfony 8, i saw v2.3.0 instead of 3.21. Could help me with this question? Maybe I have to install symfony packages separately? I hope it isn't strange question :)

Did you tried -W Please see https://github.com/doctrine-extensions/DoctrineExtensions/pull/3008#issuecomment-3625836650

Unfortunately, nothing changed:

root@4cd7c57d3f83:/var/www# composer require doctrine/dbal doctrine/doctrine-bundle doctrine/orm gedmo/doctrine-extensions:v3.12.0 -W
./composer.json has been updated
Running composer update doctrine/dbal doctrine/doctrine-bundle doctrine/orm gedmo/doctrine-extensions --with-all-dependencies

Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

  Problem 1
    - Root composer.json requires gedmo/doctrine-extensions v3.12.0 -> satisfiable by gedmo/doctrine-extensions[v3.12.0].
    - gedmo/doctrine-extensions v3.12.0 requires symfony/cache ^4.4 || ^5.3 || ^6.0 -> found symfony/cache[v4.4.0, ..., v4.4.48, v5.3.0, ..., v5.4.46, v6.0.0, ..., v6.4.30] but these were not loaded, likely because it conflicts with another require.

You can also try re-running composer require with an explicit version constraint, e.g. "composer require doctrine/dbal:*" to figure out if any version is installable, or "composer require doctrine/dbal:^2.1" if you know which you need.

Installation failed, reverting ./composer.json and ./composer.lock to their original content.

I tried to add to composer.json and then update:

root@4cd7c57d3f83:/var/www# composer update gedmo/doctrine-extensions -W

    - gedmo/doctrine-extensions v3.12.0 requires doctrine/persistence ^2.2 || ^3.0 -> found doctrine/persistence[2.2.0, ..., 2.5.7, 3.0.0, ..., 3.4.3] but these were not loaded, likely because it conflicts with another require.

root@4cd7c57d3f83:/var/www# 

And I updated all 'composer update' and tried install again, but error was the same.

It's a bit strange, because in master i see "symfony/cache": "^5.4 || ^6.4 || ^7.3 || ^8.0", but he said gedmo/doctrine-extensions v3.21.0 requires symfony/cache ^5.4 || ^6.0 || ^7.0 without 8.0.
