URGENT: webdev release is depending on a pre-release package! Impossible to use webdev in SDK until fix!

[gmpassos]

Why a standard tool like webdev, in a release (2.6.0), depends on a pre-release version (build_web_compilers version 2.12.0-dev.1)?!

This is breaking usage of webdev! Even pub.dev can't build and analyse the webdev package anymore!

When running webdev server/build it won't work with Dart 2.9.3.

Very odd to see this.

Any one that runs pub global activate webdev won't be able to use it!

New users or any IntelliJ developer won't be able to use the current webdev release.

FYI: You need a better CI steps.

Even the CHANGELOG.md points out the error:

2.6.0

• Require at least build_web_compilers version 2.12.0-dev.1.

[gmpassos]

pub.dev is also pointing out the issue:

[gmpassos]

$> webdev serve

webdev could not run for this project.
The build_web_compilers version – 2.11.0 – is not within the allowed constraint – >=2.12.0-dev.1 <3.0.0.

[gmpassos]

dev_dependencies:
build_runner: 1.10.1
build_web_compilers: 2.11.0
pedantic: ^1.9.2

Downgrading as workaround till dependency is fixed:

pub global activate webdev 2.5.9

Apologies for the break. We did a dev release of package:build_web_compilers due to this issue. Now that is resolved we can simply do a non dev release which should fix webdev at head.

This should be resolved.
