#420: cabal-install upgrade optionally ignore packages that want a higher base? ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: jimburton | Type: enhancement Status: closed | Priority: normal Milestone: cabal-install-0.14 | Component: cabal-install tool Version: 1.2.3.0 | Severity: normal Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.8.3 Platform: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Changes (by kosmikus): * status: new => closed * resolution: => fixed * milestone: cabal-install-0.8 => cabal-install-0.14 Comment: I think this is essentially fixed in the HEAD. The topdown solver now excludes unconfigurable packages in advance, and the modular solver should be able to handle this situation gracefully anyway. Of course, the original problem no longer directly applies because "upgrade" is disabled for the time being, and probably not coming back anytime soon. I'm closing this. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/420#comment:8> Hackage <http://haskell.org/cabal/> Hackage: Cabal and related projects

Why can't the first invocation of {{{cabal}}} create the config file? Does config file creation depend on {{{update}}} having been run before? -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/542#comment:4> Hackage <http://haskell.org/cabal/> Hackage: Cabal and related projects
