erlang 18.0 compatibility: type dict(), queue() undefined [JIRA: CLIENTS-524]

[p5n]

making this project as ejabberd dependency produces

ejabberd/trunk/src/ejabberd-15.06/deps/riakc/src/riakc_obj.erl:287: type dict() undefined

ejabberd/trunk/src/ejabberd-15.06/deps/riakc/src/riakc_pb_socket.erl:120: type queue() undefined

I'm also seeing problems with erlang 18; tests fail as run using ./rebar ct but I don't know enough erlang to figure out why. I tried simply bumping the allowed version in rebar.config but that obviously wasn't enough.

edit: I believe the problems I ran into were actually related to #221 rather than necessarily erlang 18.

@danieldreier can you clarify the reason why you think the problem might be related to rebar not being rebar3 - as opposed to the rebar.conf / syntax not being compatible with Erlang 18 ?
