Error with Erlang/OTP 25.0.2

Hi !

I wanted to give Elixir a try this weekend on my windows machine, so I installed Erlang/OTP 25.0.2 (via the windows installer), and installed Elixir (1.13.4) following the installation steps.

When trying to install the Phoenix application generator, I ran into the following error:

mix archive.install hex phx_new

Error while loading project :mix_local_installer at c:/Users/giomee/AppData/Local/Temp/mix-local-installer-fetcher-wZJPHw

** (UndefinedFunctionError) function Code.Formatter.locals_without_parens/0 is undefined (module Code.Formatter is not available)

I think @josevalim answer on this issue (elixir-lang/elixir#11220 (comment)) could be the answer, but I'm not sure.

Have a nice day :)

Ps: My apologies if this issue does not belong to this repository !

Yes, this is being tracked already. It will be fixed in the next release. You need to use Erlang/OTP 24 for now or compile Elixir yourself. :)

Thanks for the quick reply, and good luck for the next release :)
