#346: Add a warning for synopsis being a prefix of the description ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: HEAD Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: normal Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment (by ross): The package page now shows both, so perhaps authors will be motivated to provide more useful synopsis values. (Some of them just repeat the package name.) The Cabal User's Guide would benefit from more guidance on these two fields (though the guidance that's currently there is often ignored). Neil's wording about sounds good to me. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/346#comment:4 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
