Hi folks,
I want to give you advance notice that I would like to make Cabal depend on parsec. The implication is that GHC would therefore depend on parsec and thus it would become a core package, rather than just a HP package. So this would affect both GHC and the HP, though I hope not too much.
+1 from me, although the amount of potential knock-on work might be discouraging. The current cabal-install bootstrap process (which is currently pretty easy and is necessary at times) will get a bunch more deps as a result of this change, no? -- Gregory Collins <greg@gregorycollins.net>
