Is this still valid for sbt-buildinfo 0.2.0. Having issues.

Figured it out. For 0.2.0 of the sbt-buildinfo plugin

buildInfoKeys := Seq[Scoped](name, version, scalaVersion, sbtVersion),

must be switched to

buildInfoKeys := Seq[BuildInfoKey](name, version, scalaVersion, sbtVersion),

as noted on the github sbt-buildinfo git page.
