Any update!!

Thanks for the information!
I haven't been watching V's changelog for a while... I'll give a look and try to fix it.

[ndac-todoroki]

Sorry for taking this over the holidays;;

I've made a little fix for this.
The issue was: v.c no was no longer released with versioning.
It wasn't realistic to get the correct v.c commit hash from the asdf install info, so I chose to always use the latest v.c available.
This may make incompatibility for older versions of v, but should work for the latest version (at least?)

doing asdf plugin-update v should fix this issue!

[ndac-todoroki]

Now the fix fixes the not-installable problem, V doesn't self-recompile correctly currently. >> #9

Thanks, @ndac-todoroki, Now it works.

hey @byteshiva ,

Thanks for your verify! Can you tell me what OS/Environment are you on? (You were on Ubuntu...)
Can you execute v? (not v --version, but the REPL one v)

[byteshiva]

➜ uname -a 
Linux  5.3.0-29-generic #31-Ubuntu SMP x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux/ 

No, I'm unable to enter into repl session using v repl

thanks @byteshiva !
I wanted to be sure about that. I've realized this issue after this fix. Sorry about it. The new issue is now described as #9.
