#716: Inconsistent behavior between custom and simple build types ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: j3h | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: cabal-install tool | Version: Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion: Platform: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment(by duncan): I guess we could warn. In general we do need to be able to build using a different Cabal version, even for build-type Simple. The current behaviour is to use a Cabal lib version that is the same major version as the version that cabal-install was built with, and otherwise to use whatever is the latest available version that meets the version constraints specified in the .cabal file. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/716#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
