Re: [racket-users] drracket migrate: package is currently installed in a wider scope
Thanks for the fast fix Matthew! It should help at least for those who install the nightlies but haven't upgraded yet.

Although the package-migrate tool was intended to skip packages that are already installed, this example hits a corner that we didn't anticipate --- although, in retrospect, it's not an unlikely case: 1) the package is installed, but as a dependency of some other explicitly installed package; and 2) the existing install is in a wider scope than the target scope for migration. In that case, the migration tool attempts to upgrade "auto-installed as a dependency" to "explicitly installed", and that fails due to being in the wrong scope. One the solution is to have migrate not try to upgrade a package from auto-installed if it's already installed, and I've pushed that change. It doesn't help with 7.1 -> 7.2, but it should help in the future. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.

Re: [racket-users] drracket migrate: package is currently installed in a wider scope
Okay, I think the problem is that DrRacket's dependency installed quickscript, and trying to migrate your own version of quickscript afterwards fails because it's already there. I guess the solution would be to remove *your* previous version of quickscript, then trying to migrate again. (No need to remove quickscript-extra, if you've installed it, since it is not in DrRacket's dependencies.) Glad you like it in any case :) On Fri, Feb 1, 2019 at 2:47 PM andrew blinn wrote: > Hi Laurent! > > I may be misattributing the error.

Re: [racket-users] drracket migrate: package is currently installed in a wider scope
Hi Laurent! I may be misattributing the error. I did indeed already have quickscript installed as part of my previous installation. After updating, when I tried to restore my previous packages (which include quickscript), it aborts with the titular error, whose body text implicates the fact that quickscript is already installed. My expectation would be that it would proceed to reinstall the other non-conflicting packages, but this doesn't happen. In any case, the issue seems to lie with the package restore functionality, not quickscript itself. Loving quickscript, by the way. Installed it immediately after your racketcon presentation.

Re: [racket-users] drracket migrate: package is currently installed in a wider scope
Hi Andrew, I don't quite understand what role quickscript being part of the main distribution plays here. Can you give some more details about your issue? Just in case, the only change is that quickscript is by default a dependency of DrRacket, which just means that if you didn't have it before, now you would. But it shouldn't change anything else AFAIU.
