I am getting this error when using the “tag new version” feature of the VSCode extension:

```julia

┌ Warning: The active manifest file is an older format with no julia version entry. Dependencies may have been resolved with a different julia version.

```

The manifest file of my package is already updated, and I just upgraded the registry manually, but with no effect.

Any idea?

From the error message I would say that it’s using `Pkg` internals and those internals changed in 1.7.

I’m getting this error again, and I don’t know what should I do…

I think that if I point the Julia being used by VSCode to 1.6.X it works, but why would I need to do that?

(delting the mentioned Manifest file solves the warning, but not the error).

```julia
