From 55f3ca2f7b6f22cba5be5e196bed482bb7db3533 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "T. R. Bernstein" Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2026 16:37:15 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Temporary fix of SwiftPM Bug using task.sh SwiftPM has currently a bug, that products or targets of dependencies are taken into consideration when resolving names, regardless if they're used or not by the root package. This stops Swift PM from working on packages, that declare this package as a dependency and define their own TaskCLI target, as they collide with the definitions of this package. This is resolved, by prefixing TaskCLI with the package name. The product collision - which causes swift run - to run this package's task executable is resolved, by adding that product only temporarily during task execution using task.sh.
