[Hackage] #707: cabal-install config setting "documentation: True" ignores base library dependency
#707: cabal-install config setting "documentation: True" ignores base library dependency ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: KiYungAhn | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: cabal-install tool | Version: 1.8.0.2 Severity: normal | Keywords: cabal-install, link, dependency, documentation Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion: 6.12.1 Platform: Linux | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ I use "documentation: True" setting in the cabal-install config file (in linux $HOME/.cabal/config) since I prefer to install documentation locally with the library, and recently found out that this ignores the base library version in the .cabal files. I am not sure about whether they ignore other libraries but for base it is for sure. Even though the package cabal file specifies base >= 4 the cabal-install seems to revert back to base version 3 when I use "documentation: True" in the config file. In particular, I found this bug when I was working with the RepLib package. I had a link error when I was using the "documentation: True" option in the config, but when I commented that out and worked with the default config file everything worked. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/707 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects

Since apparently TH is involved, it might possibly be an instance of http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2555 which itself seems to be a hard-to-reproduce problem. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/707#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
