#598: Bogus build failures on HackageDB --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: mboes | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: hackageDB website | Version: Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion: Platform: | --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment(by ross): The client's build environment got messed up by building recent versions of a couple of GHC 6.12.1 core packages with GHC 6.10. There are two problems with that: * some of them have undeclared dependencies on base-4.2.0.0 * Cabal and the GHC build system build packages with different flags, so that yields a binary incompatibility. Switching to GHC 6.12.1 fixes those, leaving the diamond dependency problem. Building with cabal-install should fix that, but seems to be blocked by #517. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/598#comment:9 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
