If yall are like me, you have all started using composer for all of your Drupal dependency management. This is all through the work of webflow and his maintenance on packagist.drupal-composer.org.
I did run into a problem recently:
{
require-dev: {
"drupal/api": "7.*",
}
}
This yields the following error
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

Potential causes:
- A typo in the package name
- The package is not available in a stable-enough version according to your minimum-stability setting
see for more details.
Of course this problem is a classic one described in #1241932 gplib is the module name; grammar_parser_lib is the project name
Luckly, Webflo built in some logic (at least I assume so, I haven't looked into the code real hard) where the package by the project name replaces the packages that use the module name. What this means is...
Simply do the following:
{
require-dev: {
"drupal/api": "7.*",
"drupal/grammar_parser_lib": "~7.2.0",
}
}
Now all is right with the world.
