Hello everyone,
I've been making decent progress on getting dependency analysis working. I've just about gotten libHScabal.a to build using it :) But it's starting to look like it won't be possible to simply drop in my code to the current system. So rather than try to do that, I've decided to make a new module directory Distribution/Extended, and make a parallel system with a new API. I don't anticipate having to make any major changes to the .cabal file, only to Setup.hs, and I'm going to re-use as much of the existing API as possible.
Good to hear! Can you give a little more detail on what these problems are? Also, note that Simple stands for "simple /to use/ interface" - in that context Extended doesn't seem like too useful a name. Thanks, / Thomas
