#176: Bad verbosity message lacks crucial detail ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal | Version: HEAD Severity: minor | Keywords: Difficulty: very easy (<1 hour) | Ghcversion: 6.6 Platform: Windows | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- I wanted to run Cabal and get the maximum information for a bug report, so I did: runhaskell Setup sdist -v5 Setup: Bad verbosity 5 Which is a fine error message, but adding it to: Setup: Bad verbosity 5 (maximum allowed 3) Would save me doing a linear search to find the maximum value. (GHC version 6.8.1 with HEAD Cabal, but that's not a Trac approved combination) -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/176 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
