#432: cabal-install patches for HTTP 4000.0.0 ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: Bart Massey | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: cabal-install tool | Version: HEAD Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: very easy (<1 hour) Ghcversion: 6.10.1 | Platform: ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Changes (by duncan): * difficulty: normal => very easy (<1 hour) * milestone: Cabal-1.8 => Comment: Thanks for those patches. Here are some comments: Usually the best way to submit patches is as darcs patches. If you decide to make darcs patches, I suggest you separate the HTTP-4000 changes from the rest. The version constraints on the Cabal and zlib version are fine for this release. We cannot easily make it work with both Cabal-1.6 and 1.7 so the cabal-install-0.6.x series will continue to use Cabal-1.6.x. At some point the development version of cabal-install will start tracking the development version Cabal-1.7.x. We use zlib < 0.6 because we know that the 0.5 api is compatible but we do not know that about the 0.6 release because it does not exist yet. If you want to send in patches to silence warnings, keep that patch separate from the other patches. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/432#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
