Ghostl library not installed via PlatformIO about espsoftwareserial

[sartyx]

doesn't really work?

Library Manager: Installing dok-net/ghostl @ ^1.0.0
Library Manager: Warning! Could not install `{'owner': 'dok-net', 'name': 'ghostl', 'version': '^1.0.0'}` dependency for the`EspSoftwareSerial` package

@sartyx @CraigBurden @Sjorsa I've spoken to the original EspSoftwareSerial maintainer, from whom I've taken over. He wasn't the one who registered EspSoftwareSerial with platform.io either - but isn't able to find out who it was and who's potentially behind registering new releases.
And no, it's not necessary for the registrant to be the same person as the development lead. This is open source. If nobody takes any perceived "risk" to have a little effort, nobody is entitled to complain, either :-)
If you have an platformio account or are willing to create one, and if you can think you can show due dilligence in submitting, reviewing the result and perhaps updating for new releases in the forseeable near future, please go ahead and publish ghostl. It is OK by me!!! I'm just not going to do it myself, there's nothing in that for me except the hassle.

Hi, after installing git basch for windows, I was try to add lib_deps =
maxgerhardt/ghostl@^1.0.0
and
https://github.com/dok-net/ghostl/archive/refs/tags/1.0.0.zip
and
https://github.com/dok-net/ghostl/

and still doesn't work, ive got an error:

Resolving pico32 dependencies...
Library Manager: Installing dok-net/ghostl @ ^1.0.0
UnknownPackageError: Could not find the package with 'dok-net/ghostl @ ^1.0.0' requirements for your system 'windows_amd64'

EDIT: on version 1.0.1 still the same ...
EDIT2: for now, the forked version is working great: https://github.com/jmceleney/espsoftwareserial

Just had the same issue, solved it by cloning the https://github.com/dok-net/ghostl repo into my libs folder, make sure that dok-net/ghostl is NOT part of lib_deps.

Solved it bij splitting name and version in library.json (See pull request)

"dependencies": {
        "name": "ghostl",
        "version": "maxgerhardt/ghostl@^1.0.0"
    }

You can also specify a direct url into the github repo in stead of <owner>/<repo> construction

so anyone cane make a new release e.g. 8.3.0 with two critical fixes from this #307 and #311 and optionally from #310?
really please, this library is almost perfect :(

[sartyx]

you can make your own fork/version on the upper right corner with the fixes

Fixed by publishing the ghostl library to PIO under my own account now.
