Root Cause

Two or more dependencies require incompatible features or versions of the same crate. Resolve by aligning dependency versions.

generic

Workarounds

  1. 85% success Use cargo tree -d to find duplicate dependencies and align versions 
    cargo tree -d  # find duplicates
# Then update Cargo.toml to use compatible version ranges

    Sources: https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-tree.html

  2. 82% success Use workspace dependency resolution for monorepo projects 
    # In workspace Cargo.toml:
[workspace.dependencies]
shared-crate = "1.5"
# In member Cargo.toml:
[dependencies]
shared-crate.workspace = true

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. Use [patch] to force a single version without checking compatibility 70% fail

    API differences between versions cause compile errors or runtime panics
