patch applied (cabal-install): "Partial fix for handling multiple installed instances of same package version"
by Duncan Coutts 27 Feb '11

27 Feb '11

Sun Feb 27 04:50:08 PST 2011 Duncan Coutts <duncan(a)haskell.org> * Partial fix for handling multiple installed instances of same package version Previously when multiple instances of the same package are installed, e.g. in global and user dbs, we would often end up selecting the wrong instance. Now we select the user one consistently which will solve the problem in most (but not all) cases.

Congratulations! > I'll see if I can do a review of the "detailed" interface this week. This week?! Don't you have better things to do? But yes, a review at some point would be appreciated. The goal is to have something close to what test-framework has always had (ie tree of tests, QC, HUnit, other tests to be lifted in) but using as few language extensions as we can get away with. I also rather like Thomas' pure/impure distinction. It's also important of course to handle things like RNG seeds so that we can reproduce test runs. Duncan
