Constantine 0.1.0 compilation error with Nim 2.2.0/2.0.10 on Win10/macOS Sonoma

[kornwind]

After updating Nim from version 2.0.8 to 2.2.0, a compilation error appeared in Constantine 0.1.0:

The same thing happens when switching to Nim 2.0.10:

D:\nim\choosenim>choosenim.exe 2.0.10

But if you go back to Nim 2.0.8, the application compiles without errors and works as expected:

The situation repeats under mac OS Sonoma

Can you confirm whether you are on the latest master branch? I had this error 2 weeks ago #469 but it was fixed in august.

I'll create a new release later in the day.

[kornwind]

I updated Nim with the
choosenim 2.2.0,
then installed constantine to version 0.1.0 using
nimble install constantine.
It happened on October 4th. I suppose there was the latest up-to-date version of constantine on GitHub at that time?

[kornwind]

I began to compare the sources of bithacks.nim on GitHub and those installed locally (attached screenshots). And I found that the code is different. It looks like nimble has installed something wrong.

[kornwind]

I downloaded the code from GitHub as a zip and updated the library manually. Everything is going to be ready. Apparently, the point is that nimble, for some reason, receives an incorrect version from GitHub.

Thank you for your excellent libraries!
