Why is the unicode-width dep pinned to version 0.11.1?

[discosultan]

tabled/papergrid/Cargo.toml

Line 16 in 300c07b

unicode-width = "=0.1.11"

This is what I could find: #415 (comment).

However this means that you can't use tabled if you have dependencies that also use unicode-width, like ratatui:

error: failed to select a version for `unicode-width`.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
    ... required by package `papergrid v0.12.0`
    ... which satisfies dependency `papergrid = "^0.12"` of package `tabled v0.16.0`
    ... which satisfies dependency `tabled = "^0.16.0"`
versions that meet the requirements `=0.1.11` are: 0.1.11

all possible versions conflict with previously selected packages.

  previously selected package `unicode-width v0.1.13`
    ... which satisfies dependency `unicode-width = "^0.1.13"` of package `ratatui v0.28.0`
    ... which satisfies dependency `ratatui = "^0.28.0"`

Ran into the same issue in combination with ratatui :)

Good question

Ahhhh I was not expecting such outcomes

I guess you better stick with v0.14 then till it's resolved?

The thought about this bound was that they had changed the logic of calculations.
So important assumption that width(char) == width(string(char)) no longer true (maybe it was a wrong assumption to begin with).
Because of this some emojie and complex UTF8 symbols was incorrectly rendered.

So I decided to make this bound.
But maybe it shall be investigated (the logic changed accordingly) to be removed.

@discosultan @russellbanks

I had to mention that you can do it by changes in Cargo.toml

tabled = "=0.14" # or whatever version you were bound to

Sorry for ping; just wanna make sure it's resolved on your end.

Have a great weekend.

[discosultan]

Thanks for the follow-up. That's the workaround I went with.

Enjoy the weekend.

I ran into this as well, and it's likewise blocking me from upgrading tabled.
