🤖 Concept prerequisite cycle found in commit 1145c7

[exercism-bot]

We found a concept prerequisite cycle in the config.json file in commit 1145c7b.

Such a cycle occurs when Concept Exercise A teaches concept X and has concept Y as a prerequisite, whereas Concept Exercise B teaches concept Y and has concept X as a prerequisite. The cycle can also be indirect, in which case there are intermediate Concept Exercises involved.

These prerequisite cycles should be removed to have the track work properly on the website.

@exercism/maintainers-admin - I would be most grateful if there was a clean way to identify this without having to manually trace it. This was also opened 25 days ago so I have no idea if the problem has already been fixed. I thought configlet lint was setup to detect this sort of thing now?

I'm not sure if confliget does this yet, but the intention is that it is in confliglet not the website. The website guard is really a guard-of-last-resort, so the debugging info should really be at the configlet level.

Ah, I see it is on their radar but not yet implemented (at present):

There must not be any cycles between "exercises.concept[].concepts" and "exercises.concept[].prerequisites"

From exercism/configlet#249

I just did a manual read through every concept exercise stanza to confirm that every concept does not have a cycle through its prerequisites. I think this is working now, but frankly I will wait for configlet lint to complain if it is actually still broken.
