#420: cabal-install upgrade optionally ignore packages that want a higher base? ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: jimburton | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: cabal-install-0.6 Component: cabal-install tool | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: normal Ghcversion: 6.8.3 | Platform: ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Changes (by duncan): * milestone: => cabal-install-0.6 Comment: This can be done by doing an initial bottom-up pass over the packages to eliminate packages that cannot possibly be installed. It is also tied in with the ability to specify exclude constraints in the existing solver. This is because we do not want exclude constraints to cause immediate failure. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/420#comment:4 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
