Localization is broken since Parse 1.8

[wouterds]

What happened guys? Where are all the previous versions? What's the reason all the previous releases were deleted?

Because there's only 1.8 everyone upgraded to the latest version and everyone seems to be fucked. This version is breaking Localization and there's no way to downgrade (using Cocoapods, doesn't take any older versions anymore, always 1.8).

Edit: removed all the rage & added a bit more info.

Apparently a duplicate of #16

Never the less, still interested why older releases were deleted.

Apparently because of license issues since the opensourcing of the SDK the previous versions are no longer available I just read somewhere. To answer my own question.

Full story about the opensourcing of the SDKs: http://blog.parse.com/announcements/open-sourcing-our-sdks/

Old versions of the SDK are still available through Cocoapods and website downloads.
Not aware about the licensing issues, but the answer to the question on why didn't we open source previous versions as well - because it's not really useful to use old things.
We are working hard to fix any issue in a matter of days if not hours, so rolling forward (using the latest) is preferred to rolling backward (using the previous).

@wouterds I suggest you to read the code of conduct before posting issues this way. Even though Parse may be a paid service for some users, their developers aren't supposed to deal with comments like this. Please be more considerate next time 😃 (I love this talk from @orta)

Not only it was a duplicate of another issue, as you posted, you could use CocoaPods to point to the previous version.

(If you don't know or don't use CocoaPods yet: it's a really good way to add 3rd party/open source frameworks, and I suggest you to use it. Will make it easier for you to update versions, and you won't need to download, drag and drop, etc. Take a look in this video that Google did explaining what is CocoaPods)

@natanrolnik: I was using Cocoapods and it didn't take any of the previous/older versions anymore, always picked 1.8 (in my Podfile I was using pod 'Parse', '~> 1.7').

Updated original post with more info and removed all the unnecessary rage.

@wouterds Hope it works for you now 👍🏻

@natanrolnik It does after removing derived data & updating to 1.8.1 👌!
