Looks like this is still running on 15, is there plans to upgrade to a current version?

Looks like a rebar crash?
How do you build it?
try switch back to make instead, rebar is way to complicated...

[CaptChrisD]

I am trying to build it as part of an Elixir project -- Specifically Nerves (nerves-project.org). I have used your lib in the past many years ago. The build pipeline actually cross compiles to the target architecture (Rasperry Pi in this case) and I don't think I can override the build step to use Make instead of rebar. I also do development on a Mac so I can't use Make on my dev machine. I may try to spin up a VM to try but that won't solve my long term compilation issues.

It is actually crashing when compiling the uart repo.

Thoughts?

I think I see it. It's the modules directive in the src/uart.app.src file that is not "handle" by rebar3.
fork/clone uart and set {modules, []} / remove it, and see if it works. Maybe some funky rebar.config app.src post script may do the trick? Looking forward to a contribution (that works with my makefiles)
