Hi, I’ve created a database using `v3.2103.2`, then I tried to use the `badger` cli tool as described here [Get started —](https://dgraph.io/docs/badger/get-started/#database-backup), like this:

```auto
$ go install github.com/dgraph-io/badger/badger@latest
$ badger info --dir=/path/to/db

```

But I get this error: `Error: failed to print information in MANIFEST file: manifest has unsupported version: 8 (we support 4).`

Any help is very welcome 🙂

The `@latest` tag refers to badger v1.6.2. The actual latest version is [v3.2103.2](https://github.com/dgraph-io/badger/releases/tag/v3.2103.2). You’ll want to take a look at the [install instructions](https://github.com/dgraph-io/badger#installing) in the Github repo.

Awesome, thanks @david.schlachter ! Do I need to checkout the source in order to install the cli tool, isn’t it go-installable with a single command?

the Install instructions in the github repo refer to `go get github.com/dgraph-io/badger/v3` this does not work with go1.18 you need to go install but what is the path? v3 no longer exists.
