Error building package - Error: glib: undefined method

[gtollefson]

Hi @staticfloat ,

I receive the following error when trying to build Homebrew.jl on Julia 1.1.0 on a Macbook pro running High Sierra 10.13.6. Can you help me solve this? We're in the final stage of a development project so it's rather urgent.

Here's the error message:

[staticfloat]

If you pkg> add Homebrew#master does that change anything?

[gtollefson]

@staticfloat that worked. Will we have to pin to a master version in our manifest.toml for our package to compile?

[staticfloat]

For now, until a new version of Homebrew.jl is released.

[remi-garcia]

Does v0.7.2 fix this? Should we still pin to master?
