anyone else having a problem with with 5.2.2 - i think it may be related to the new 1.6.1 coroutine release from yesterday?

[Peter]

Caused by:
        java.lang.AbstractMethodError: Receiver class io.kotest.assertions.ErrorCollectorContextElement does not define or inherit an implementation of the resolved method 'abstract kotlinx.coroutines.CopyableThreadContextElement copyForChild()' of interface kotlinx.coroutines.CopyableThreadContextElement.

[Peter]

still digging

[Peter]

seems to work fine if i strictly require kotlinx coroutines 1.6.0

[sam]

Looks like they made a breaking change in 1.6.1

[Oliver.O]

Yes, a method has been renamed. I‘m working on the kotest part.

[Peter]

Annoying that they don't use semver appropriately to indicate that

[Oliver.O]

Or use a deprecation cycle…

[christophsturm]

its an ExperimentalCoroutinesApi

[sam]

So is half the std lib

[Oliver.O]

Found out that there is a PR for the issue: https://github.com/kotest/kotest/pull/2912

Have commented on that and will not push another one.

[christophsturm]

will there be a release soon with this fix?

[sam]

5.2.3 was released a couple of days ago, sorry for not posting sooner

[christophsturm]

yes i am already using it, it works great now.
