#323: Add url field for package bug reports ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.8.2 Platform: | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- We would like package authors to be able to specify a url where they would like bug reports to be directed. This could be a `mailto:` url or an online `http:` bug tracker. We should actually parse the field as a url and make sure it's one of the two. This might be a requirement for packages in the Haskell Platform. The hackage web page would have the link and direct users with bug reports. If we can agree then we should get this into Cabal-1.6. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/323 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
