#379: compiler directive of cabal-install's config file is case sensitive ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: phigley | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: cabal-install tool | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: normal Ghcversion: 6.8.3 | Platform: Mac OS ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment (by duncan): This is a more tricky problem than it looks. The reason is we're now parsing the config file by converting the command line parser. It has flags for `--ghc`, `--hugs` etc and is case sensitive. Really we'd like a config field flag parsed using the `Text` instance for `CompilerFlavor` because that is not case sensitive. Doing this properly involves rewriting the command line option / config file field description subsystem. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/379#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
