missing dependency: ido-completing-read+.el

[stapelberg]

I just set up a new Emacs 25 installation on a new computer.

After installing the smex package, the smex command wouldn’t work, stating “no such file or directory: ido-completing-read+”. After installing the ido-completing-read+ package, it started working.

I believe smex should declare a dependency so that ido-completing-read+ will be installed automatically.

Is it possible you're using my fork, with this pull request merged? #68

I’m using smex-20151212.1409 installed from melpa.

That version has no reference to ido-completing-read+.el. You can check by going here and searching for it.

Odd. I don’t have the computer available right now from which I filed the bug report, so I can’t double-check.
