Installing cargo-xwin v0.20.2
Updating crates.io index
error: failed to compile `cargo-xwin v0.20.2`, intermediate artifacts can be found at `/var/folders/6p/k5sd5z7j31b31pq4lhn0l8d80000gn/T/cargo-installZU3vlq`.
To reuse those artifacts with a future compilation, set the environment variable `CARGO_TARGET_DIR` to that path.
Caused by:
failed to select a version for the requirement `xwin = "^0.6.6"`
version 0.6.6 is yanked
version 0.6.7 is yanked
location searched: crates.io index
required by package `cargo-xwin v0.20.2`
