Call to undefined method [package]

[dainemedia]

When referencing "laravel/framework": "4.2.*" in composer.json I receive a Call to undefined method [package].

If you change the reference to "laravel/framework": "4.2.0" all works fine.

It's related too laravel/framework@3a0afc2

Until a new way is developed all packages are broken for Laravel 5.

I'm not talking about Laravel 5 mate. Laravel 4.2.*.

@JeffreyWay - are you planning to update it any time soon to the new package approach used by Laravel 5?

[jonathanpmartins]

I don`t think the new approach is out now, but it would be soon.

I've developed a method to bridge packages across without modifying their source code, all you need to do is point to a bridging service provider which handles all the differences.
