Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Conduit :: moz-phab, defect, P1)

I started getting

ERROR: Unable to load libphutil. Put libphutil/ next to arcanist/, or update your PHP 'include_path' to include the parent directory of libphutil/, or symlink libphutil/ into arcanist/externals/includes/

after a moz-phab auto update.
It looks like the issue is libphutil deprecated the master branch 5 days ago which moz-phab pulls from
https://github.com/phacility/libphutil/tree/master

There seems to be a stable branch still existing ..

A source of confusion: in my case, the .mozbuild folder contained an arcanist folder and a libphutil folder. But those were not the relevant ones. The relevant ones were in .mozbuild/moz-phab/`. Thanks to Hubert for pointing this out.

Confirmed to fix the issue by doing:

cd ~/.mozbuild/moz-phab
rm -rf libphutil
git clone https://github.com/phacility/libphutil
cd libphutil
git co stable

moz-phab submit // WORKS
