Topic: help welcome: #9993 build failure in PrimeSpectrum/Basic


Michael Rothgang (Jan 25 2024 at 11:43):

In #9993 (re-using some variables in Topology/Basic), I'm getting a build failure in PrimeSpectrum/Basic which I'm stuck on. Help by an algebraic geometry expert is welcome. You can see the PR for typical fixes: often, it's switching argument order or removing an underscore which is no longer necessary.

error: tactic 'rewrite' failed, failed to assign synthesized instance

Michael Rothgang (Jan 25 2024 at 12:15):

The PR builds except for this one error (tested locally).

Sébastien Gouëzel (Jan 25 2024 at 12:58):

fixed.

Sébastien Gouëzel (Jan 25 2024 at 13:00):

But to me it looks like an indication that the previous version worked better.

Kevin Buzzard (Jan 25 2024 at 13:00):

great to see Sebastien is now an algebraic geometry expert!

Michael Rothgang (Jan 25 2024 at 15:05):

Thanks for the quick fix. I have restored the one affected lemma, so the original proof works.
