compilation errors on build

error[E0588]: packed type cannot transitively contain a `[repr(align)]` type
  --> framework/src/shared_state/directory.rs:13:1

Have anyone solved this problem? It is possible to be solved by using some old packages?

[seankwalker]

@YangZhou1997 I ended up using a fork (specifically this one); if you'd rather not, it'd probably be not too awful to go through the commits of a fork which builds and see how they addressed the build errors

Thanks @seankwalker !

I followed your rep and run it successfully. In contrast, there seems something wrong in the latest comcast's version. Hope to fix them and do local deployment in few days.
