#135: Epoch Support for Version Numbers ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: nominolo@gmail.com | Owner: nominolo Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal | Version: 1.1.6 Severity: minor | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: easy (<4 hours) Ghcversion: 6.4.2 | Platform: Linux ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment (by duncan): The downside with this is that every dependency on the new foo-1.0 has to specify foo >= 1:1.0. And they have to do this for ever more. There is no way to drop the epoch. It's not clear we want or need this. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/135#comment:2 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
