Any idea about what can be?

[huytd]

Oh, my implementation of webview.h didn't include Windows and Linux version of webview_set_background_color() yet 🤦‍♂️

OK lemme update it later tonight. Thank you so much 👍

[soapdog]

@huytd any news on this? 😄

[huytd]

Sorry for the delay. I just updated the webview.h. Updating the crate should fix this problem now:

cargo update

[huytd]

Seems like it's the problem with Term, a dependency in cargo bundle (https://stebalien.github.io/doc/term/term/enum.Error.html#variant.NotSupported).

How about skip cargo bundle, and just run cargo build --release?

[soapdog]

@huytd after the update, it fails when running cargo build --release with a script error.
