#269: Not having an up-to-date package list causes indexing out of bounds error ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: low | Milestone: Component: cabal-install tool | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Resolution: fixed Keywords: | Difficulty: normal Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Changes (by duncan): * status: new => closed * resolution: => fixed Comment: Fixed points 2 and 3 above. This should be enough to give much better behaviour in the case of a truncated download. {{{ Sat Aug 23 00:00:33 BST 2008 Duncan Coutts * Decompress the repo index atomically. So if decompression fails (eg if the index is corrupt) then the decompressed file does not get (partially) written. Sun Aug 24 19:05:01 BST 2008 Duncan Coutts * Use updated tar code Much more robust. Correctly detects trucated archives. }}} For the remaining point see #338. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/269#comment:3 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
