Capacitor 6 - Unable to install @capacitor/background-runner

[WesleyRexmedia]

I started with a fresh project and can’t install @capacitor/background-runner
In Vs Code with the Ionic plugin, i made a new tabs project with Vue. And run following command in the terminal

npm install @capacitor/background-runner

Apparently Capacitor was upgraded to version number 6. And i was trying to install @capacitor/background-runner and i run into an install error.

\Ionic\beep>npm install @capacitor/background-runner

If anyone could help that would be great ! Thank you in advance !

Same issue it seems like the project has not been upgraded to use Capacitor 6 version

Any updates here? Or anything we can help, would be great to have it on version v6.

Progress has been made. The build from 10d ago incorporates changes to support capacitor 6: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@capacitor/background-runner/v/1.0.6-dev-20240628T145630.0

Perhaps give it a spin and see if you encounter issues.

Any updates? I'm still encountering this problem in capacitor v6.

It is working for me, I am using all capacitor plugins v6

Weird, v1.1.0 which is 5 months olds needs Capacitor v5. But the dev versions of v1.0.6 supports Capacaitor 6 and are only two weeks old. Sometings is wrong with the release numbers. I hope sone the dev version of v1.0.6 becomes available as a production release with a correct version number. :)
