#718: Behaviour of postCopy and postInstall hook is confusing ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.8.0.2 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion: Platform: | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment(by duncan): Yes it's pretty crazy and confusing. I'm not sure we can change it easily however as I think it would break old packages (that's why we'd not done it already). Though perhaps someone could look at how a smooth transition might work. Alternatively we have to wait for a full redesign of the hooks interface. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/718#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
