This might be a rather general question: How to deal with incompatible packages in meteor? In my case I'm using the testing suite velocity and jasmine, which is not compatible with the current version of autoform-file package. My html-reporter would just continue executing the test without actually getting the result due to the following error:
Errors prevented startup:
While selecting package versions:
error: Potentially incompatible change required to top-level dependency: yogiben:autoform-file 0.3.0, was 0.4.2.
Constraints on package "yogiben:autoform-file":
To allow potentially incompatible changes to top-level dependencies, you must pass --allow-incompatible-update on the command line.
Your application has errors. Waiting for file change.
I was thinking of downgrading the autoform-file package to 0.3.0 however, I didn't find any information on how to do it.
I was able to install the package at a specific version using:
meteor add yogiben:autoform-file@=0.3.0
That worked for me.
