Description

Hello,

I just installed antigen (using a git clone) and, every time I modify my .zshrc (located in /home/zoc/.zsh/.zshrc - I use ZDOTDIR to add a .zsh directory in there) and restart the shell, I get the error:

-antigen-cache-generate:zcompile:65: can't open file: /home/zoc/.zshrc

Is this a real bug or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you very much in advance!

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check the cache generation function in antigen.zsh for proper handling of ZDOTDIR and ensure the correct .zshrc path is used for compiling.
