#53: if cabal get update needs to run, say so ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: ijones | Owner: ijones Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Cabal-1.4 Component: cabal-install | Version: Severity: major | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: normal Ghcversion: 6.2.1 | Platform: Linux ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment (by duncan): This is actually a tricky problem. We cannot just go online any old time to update the index. We have to be able to fetch packages and install and re-install them later without having to go online. So the question is, what are the points when we would have to go online anyway and so it'd be ok to update the index. Are there enough of them, or should we just suggest to update when the index is older than N days. Can someone come up with a proposal? -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/53#comment:6> Hackage <http://haskell.org/cabal/> Hackage: Cabal and related projects

patch applied (cabal): Add correct^H^H^H^H British English spelling of optimisation
by Duncan Coutts 17 Dec '07

17 Dec '07

Mon Dec 17 05:35:33 PST 2007 Duncan Coutts <duncan(a)haskell.org> * Add correct^H^H^H^H British English spelling of optimisation For the --enable/disable-optimi(z|s)ation flag, allow the British English spelling of the flags as an alias. The current one is still the one displayed, and it does not list bith in the --help text, though the command completion would list both. Perhaps the default should be on the basis of the current locale :-). M ./Distribution/Simple/Setup.hs -2 +6
