compat install_archive needs update to new protocal

#1444 (comment)

[timholy]

Possibly because of this, essentially all packages are currently failing their nightly tests (e.g., JuliaDebug/JuliaInterpreter.jl#352, many others).

[StefanKarpinski]

Yes, I’ll try to fix this today. It’s unfortunate that the file this is in is apparently untested yet relied upon by the entire ecosystem. I’m also unclear why there’s a whole seemingly near copy of normal Pkg code that’s just for testing, but I guess the simplest solution is just to fix it...

[timholy]

Wonderful. I'll hold off on tagging packages that build docs, just so the docs stay fully up to date.

[KristofferC]

#1427 should get rid of the duplication.

[StefanKarpinski]

I have a tentative fix but I can't test since I don't know how to reproduce this problem. How does one trigger this issue?

[fredrikekre]

You trigger it by having [target] style test deps (that needs to be downloaded).

[StefanKarpinski]

Can you give me some code I can run to trigger this? I've tried running tests for Primes and JuliaDebugger, but they work fine without this patch.

[fredrikekre]

Not at a computer right now, but did you try with an empty depot path?

[StefanKarpinski]

If I empty the DEPOT_PATH it tells me that there's no active project. As soon as someone comes up with a way to repro the issue and test that the fix actually fixes it, we can merge.

[StefanKarpinski]

I realize it's post-Thanksgiving weekend, but this seems somewhat urgent. Can no one give me a way to reproduce this issue?

[KristofferC]

Or we merge #1427 that gets rid of this file.

[StefanKarpinski]

I'd be very happy what that as well.

[timholy]

I think you can just copy what happens when this goes awry in a Travis test? E.g., https://travis-ci.org/JuliaDebug/JuliaInterpreter.jl/jobs/619205659?utm_medium=notification&utm_source=github_status

[StefanKarpinski]

You would think, but...

[StefanKarpinski]

Ah, it seems like the issue is that I already had all of Primes' dependencies installed. When I tried with JuliaInterpreter, which has some dependencies I didn't have installed, I can trigger this:

julia> import Pkg

julia> Pkg.test(coverage=true)
