#170: pkg-config uses a more general version scheme ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.8.0.6 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.10.4 Platform: Linux | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment(by duncan): We do need to parse the version because people can use arbitrarily complicated version constraints, not just ">= x.y". I think we just need to do it properly and have pkg-config versions use a different type internally than `Version`, and use different version comparison code. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/170#comment:4 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
