Run this unit test

module dummy::test {
    use std::debug::print;
    use aptos_std::smart_table::{Self, SmartTable};
    #[test]
    fun test() {
        let table = smart_table::new<u64, u64>();
        smart_table::add<u64,u64>(&mut table, 1u64, 100u64);
      
        smart_table::clear(&mut table);
        let length = smart_table::length(&table);
        assert!(length == 0, 0);
        
        smart_table::destroy_empty(table);
    }
}

I can reproduce this error when i'm using main branch of aptos-core for AptosFramework.
Commit 9c21cf58c931faafd6b4dff30583f34fb3643de8

If I switched to mainnet branch of aptos-core, it works fine.

Hey! We are aware of the issue and are fixing it. Which version of the CLI are you using? The problem is because the changes recently made to main are unstable, and the old CLIs might now be compatible with them.

thanks! im using cli 3.5.1

@georgemitenkov is there any open GitHub issue related to this? I am also running CLI v3.5.1 and experiencing similar behavior using devnet and testnet revisions. Running my tests with mainnet revision solves the problem for now but I would like to track the current resolution progress.

ditto on CLI v3.5.1

[georgemitenkov]

The issue is filed & tracked here: aptos-labs/aptos-core#14240

The problem with the existing CLI is that the newest aptos framework release now contains a new native function to enhance calculation of serialised size of a Move value (cheaper gas, faster implementation) which broke compatibility with previously released CLIs. The not so user-friendly error message MISSING_DEPENDENCY is meant to say that the new native function cannot be found (which is the case for old CLIs).

We are releasing the new CLI in around today/tomorrow which solves the issue. In the meantime, building CLI from main is a workaround:

cd aptos-core
cargo build -p aptos --release

Having encountered this issue, we are also looking into making error messages better and improving devex when working with the CLI.

Hey @MoonShiesty @IsaacCisnerosFT @0xaptosj! The new CLI (4.0.0) has been released which fixes the issue described here. If you update, things should work as normal.
