"Failed to normalize readme path `README.md`" when it exists

[konstin]

(I'm not sure yet if that's a problem in the project layout or in maturin, but the error message is definitely bad)

[EricLBuehler]

This is my project layout:

.
├── API.md
├── Cargo.toml
├── README.md
├── mistralrs.pyi
├── pyproject.toml
└── src

1 directory, 5 files

Is my project layout incorrect?

[konstin]

It looks like the problem is mistralrs-core not mistralrs, but i didn't get to looking in detail yet

[EricLBuehler]

@konstin, it looks like adding a README.md to each crate of my repo fixed this issue.

[messense]

@EricLBuehler do you have a public repo for repro?

[EricLBuehler]

@messense, yes, here: https://github.com/EricLBuehler/mistral.rs

However, the error has been fixed by adding a README.md to every dependency crate.

[EricLBuehler]

For future reference: this was solved by adding a README.md to every dependent crate in my project.
