#554: HStringTemplate fails to build when building gitit ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: cabal-install-0.6 Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.6.0.1 Severity: normal | Resolution: invalid Keywords: | Difficulty: unknown Ghcversion: | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * status: new => closed * resolution: => invalid Comment: This is a bug in the package, not in Cabal. HStringTemplate-0.5.1.1 claims that it works with base 3, which is not true. It actually requires base 4, or other adjustments to enable it to build with base 3. In particular it should avoid trying to use syb at the same time as using base 3, because syb was included in base 3 and is separate from base 4 onwards. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/554#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
