#191: Hackage should check for common QA problems in ghc-options --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: HackageDB website | Version: 1.2.2.0 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: easy (<4 hours) Ghcversion: 6.8.1 | Platform: Linux --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment (by duncan): Yes it is a lib issue. The code to do these checks should be in the library and used in hackagedb and cabal-install. However I think the interpretation of some of the checks should be different in the hackage context than in a private build context. So something that might be a warning in cabal locally, like a missing build- type should be a fatal error for hackagedb. Perhaps we should improve sanityCheckPackage or add an extra qaCheckPackage that gives enough info for hackage and cabal to react differently. That one about version number parsing should be integrated into the cabal lib. It's ticket 194#. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/191#comment:5 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
