Asdf-erlang: asdf erlang returning only R13B03 on high sierra

[kokolegorille]

The title says most. On a fresh High Sierra, with asdf 0.51

$ asdf plugin-add erlang https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf-erlang.git
$ asdf list-all erlang
Downloading kerl...
R13B03

The plugin returns only R13

I've been using asdf-erlang on high sierra for several months now and have not experienced this issue. Do you happen to have a custom IFS set in your shell? That could affect the way the list of versions are delimited.

Same for me, used commit d0860caa5c6ac940dc8bcda01401d497a175c1a5 as a workaround.

(Sorry to pile on; Kyle and I are working on this together.)

I was able to replicate this, and bisect it:

AJ ❯ ~ ❯ $ ❯ cd ~/.asdf/plugins/erlang/
AJ ❯ erlang ❯ (d0860ca...) ❯ $ ❯ asdf list-all erlang
# All versions, ending in...
21.0.7
21.0.8
21.0.9
21.1
AJ ❯ erlang ❯ (d0860ca...) ❯ $ ❯ git checkout 72bf68d7d91c946c89b8ce9137befdb9535d3ece
Note: checking out '72bf68d7d91c946c89b8ce9137befdb9535d3ece'.
  # ...
HEAD is now at 72bf68d Use kerl 1.8.5 for Mojave support.
AJ ❯ erlang ❯ (72bf68d...) ❯ $ ❯ asdf list-all erlang

R13B03

I'm unfamiliar with the IFS you mentioned. 😬

By manually manipulating the KERL_VERSION variable in bin/utils.sh, I believe the issue was introduced in kerl version 1.8.3. Version 1.8.2 is the last working version.

Thanks @aj-foster ! You are right, I think we recently upgraded from kerl 1.8.2 to 1.8.5. I was not aware of the change in the output, but I see locally that using the new version it doesn't print all the available versions out.

Fixed by #89

Oops, sorry about this. I made the upgrade to 1.8.5 and didn't noticed they changed the otp_releases output 🙇
