Missing package manifest error

1

Hi,

My Teensy project compiled when I last used it. Today it won’t and I get the error shown below. Any help much appreciated

My code uses ezbutton debounce library, so not sure why the library manager has decided to remove it.
from my main.cpp:

#include <ezButton.h>

error detail:

Processing teensy36 (platform: teensy; board: teensy36; framework: arduino)

Library Manager: Removing ezButton @ 1.0.6

i solved it by deleting the ezbutton library folder - drastic action, glad I’m not at work…
Then reinstalled the ezbutton library. Code now compiles.
thanks for looking.

Simply add the library to your lib_deps:

lib_deps = 
  dfrobot/DFRobot_MCP23017@^1.0.0
  arduinogetstarted/ezButton@^1.0.6
