Package fails to precompile in Julia 1.11.2

[kailasas-um]

Hi,

I'm trying to use Associations.jl but find that it fails to precompile. When using Associations, I receive the following error:

julia> using Associations
Precompiling Associations...
Info Given Associations was explicitly requested, output will be shown live 
ERROR: LoadError: UndefVarError: `GroupSlices` not defined in `ComplexityMeasures`

Indeed, when checking the ComplexityMeasures.jl codebase, it looks to me like GroupSlices is no longer being included (perhaps related to this recent commit: JuliaDynamics/ComplexityMeasures.jl@e835a07 ?). Any help resolving this would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, yeah this is a bug recently we updated the codebase to not have a group slices module... I didn't know it was used here. @kahaaga is this easy to resolve?

@kailasas-um I just tagged a patch release that compat-bounds Associations.jl to the previous version of Complexitymeasures.jl, 3.7. For now we keep this issue open until we can have Associations.jl work also with latest version of ComplexityMeasures.jl.
