Hello folks, In the interest in as small changes as possible, I am planning on updating the version Cabal we're tracking against to Cabal HEAD (after my build finishes validating, that is!) At a later point, when someone finally merges https://github.com/haskell/cabal/pull/1991 I'll make a smaller bump. I'll also file a bug on GHC Trac milestoned for 7.10 to make sure we get a new Cabal release before next release. Edward Excerpts from Edward Z. Yang's message of 2014-07-03 14:45:02 +0100:
Hello all,
I am working on module reexports (https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8407) and this functionality requires concurrent changes to GHC and Cabal. However, GHC is currently tracking 1.20, but Cabal HEAD has marched on.
My question is, if I am to do this development on HEAD, what is the standard operating procedure for retargeting GHC to a recent version of Cabal? Of course I have to go and validate the build, but are there any other considerations? Is this recorded anywhere?
Thanks, Edward
