would (define collection 'multi) solve problem about compiled/ when racket version changes?

Open AlexKnauth opened this issue 10 years ago • 2 comments

Every time I update my racket installation to a new version, this package gives me errors about compiled/ files and version mismatches, and it seems to be treating the info.rkt as a normal compiled file. Is it supposed to do that, and I'm wondering, would adding (define collection 'multi) possibly solve this? For multi-collect packages it doesn't seem to have a compiled/ dir for the info.rkt, and it seems like if those don't need it this shouldn't? Or should the framework:color-schemes be in a collection info.rkt not the package info.rkt? (I know I should just run raco setup, but I'm also wondering how this works)

That sounds like it could be a package system issue, since it seems odd that a single collection package wouldn't work properly for this use case. I'll see if I can reproduce it.

It's not that it doesn't work properly, it's that it's annoying to have to recompile it when it seems like a package info.rkt for a multi-collect pkg doesn' need a compiled/ dir, but for a single-collect pkg it does, and since an info.rkt is basically all that is in this pkg, I'm wondering if the problem would go away for this pkg (I would still have to run raco setup for the other user pkgs though).
