I'm new to Rust and Diesel, but when I try cargo install diesel_cli i get the following error:

If I'm just being a noob, I apologize in advance. Thanks!

Hey @aeikenberry!

It looks like a PR got merged into the main Diesel crate recently (that diesel_cli depends on) that is causing this issue, I'll get this fixed real quick and investigate why our tests didn't catch this.

[mcasper]

Ah, so it looks like this is being caused by the currently published version of diesel_cli compiling diesel 0.5.3, which it does not play nicely with. Once @sgrif publishes a new version of diesel_cli, this should be fixed

[sgrif]

Whoops, sorry about that. Publishing now

[sgrif]

Should be good now

I am getting same error:

failed to compile `diesel_cli v0.7.1`, intermediate artifacts can be found at `/home/user/target-install`

Caused by:
  Could not compile `diesel`.

Can you open a new issue and provide the full error?
