No method named remove_item

[rien333]

I'm quite new to rust, so sorry if this is problem purely caused by my incompetence.

Still, whenever I try to build this program, I get the following error(s):

$ cargo install --no-default-features hunter

I'm running Arch linux (kernel version 5.10.11), and rustup (1.23.1), and rustup show shows me I'm using nightly (not using nightly also doesn't work ofc, though that gives a different error):

I've ran rustup update as well.

This error goes away when I apply #109, btw.

Thanks for the tip on #109 , for anyone looking for a quick solution:
(Also allows you to build without Rust nightly)

git clone https://github.com/06kellyjac/hunter.git
cd hunter
git checkout hunter_rust_stable
cargo install --path .

Any updates ? Still getting this error when compiling.

@pyramid3d hunter_rust_stable is a branch from another repo, https://github.com/06kellyjac/hunter.git

EDIT: looks like the branch is now hunter_rust_stable_updated

Thanks for the tip on #109 , for anyone looking for a quick solution:

git clone https://github.com/06kellyjac/hunter.git
cd hunter
git checkout hunter_rust_stable
cargo install --path .

you can one liner it with
cargo install --git https://github.com/06kellyjac/hunter.git --branch hunter_rust_stable_updated

Vec::remove_item has been deprecated via #73539, this is why it does not work anymore. You can try compiling with an older toolchain like nightly-2020-06-04. This seems to work on my machine; I just cloned the repository, installed the nightly with rustup and built the program with a directory override for this particular compiler
