Symbols value as variable is void: vertico-map

[dadinn]

The issue comes up while initialising Emacs. I am trying to use vertico via use-package and straight.

I've seen that there is an eerie similar closed issue to this here, but the recommendation there was to delete the bytecode was outdated and needed to be recompiled. I've deleted all bytecodes from my Emacs (under ~/.emacs/straight/build), and rebuilt everything, including compat and vertico packages... yet the issue remains.

Unfortunately straight uses an ELPA-mirror repo for recipes, so this repo is used inderictly, but these are the details of the version I use:

After manually updating the master branch of compat to a more recent commit, then deleting the previous bytecodes of both compat and vertico and recompiling them, vertico now loads without errors.

The commit hash in straight's ELPA-mirror was: 6fb8a4dff7ef22f96ebe1a775240617aabac6526, version 29.1.4.0, which seems to be required by vertico 1.3. The latest compat version, 19.1.4.1, was working too though... I am just being conservative.
