error import-conflict

What it means#

Two imports introduce the same name into a module and the name is actually used (§2.2). Merely having both imports is fine; the error appears at the first use, because the compiler cannot choose between them.

Example#

use std.comptime { Span }
use std.obs { Span }

fn describe(s: Span) -> i32 pure => 1      // <- import-conflict

import-conflict

How to fix#

use std.comptime { Span }
use std.obs { Span as TraceSpan }

fn describe(s: Span) -> i32 pure => 1
fn trace(s: TraceSpan) -> i32 pure => 2

Rename one of the imports with as, or avoid importing one of them.
