--ext-refs is not working properly

[mrstegeman]

This new flag was added (per my request in #186) in a894170. However, it doesn't seem to be working properly.

Here's a stripped down openapi.yaml to test with:

openapi: 3.0.3
paths:
  /metrics:
    post:
      tags:
        - metrics
      summary: Upload metrics.
      description: Proxies metrics to Prometheus and any other configured sinks.
      operationId: uploadMetrics
      parameters:
        - $ref: '#/components/parameters/XRequestIdHeaderParameter'
      responses:
        '204':
          $ref: '#/components/responses/NoContent'
components:
  schemas:
    Text:
      type: string
      description: Text string.
  responses:

      headers:
        x-request-id:
          $ref: '#/components/headers/x-request-id'
  parameters:
    XRequestIdHeaderParameter:
      description: |-
        Unique request ID. If one is not provided, it will be generated automatically and returned in the
        response headers. The request ID is useful when tracing logs.

I think this is related to the issue that i posted here: #190

[mrstegeman]

Ah yes, I think you're right!

[daveshanley]

fixed in v0.0.76

[mrstegeman]

@daveshanley This is still not working on 0.0.76. I'm getting the exact same error output.

Damn, sorry wil re-investigate.
