#216: need a way to specify the foreign libraries a package depends on ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: ross@soi.city.ac.uk | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: major | Keywords: Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.8.2 Platform: Linux | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Package descriptions allow one to specify which Haskell libraries a package depends on, but foreign ones. Designing something that can be used with native package managers is complicated because many of them alter the upstream library names in unpredictable ways. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/216 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
