with ghc 8.0.0.20160111, cabal install shake fails with [43 of 47] Compiling Development.Shake.Args ( src/Development/Shake/Args.hs, dist/build/Development/Shake/Args.o ) src/Development/Shake/Args.hs:1:1: error: solveWanteds: too many iterations (limit = 4) Unsolved: WC {wc_simple = [D] _ :: Eq a (CDictCan) [D] _ :: Ord a (CDictCan) [D] _ :: Read a (CDictCan) [D] _ :: Show a (CDictCan) [W] hole{a4gTO} :: a ~ a (CNonCanonical) [D] _ :: Eq a (CDictCan)} New superclasses found Set limit with -fconstraint-solver-iterations=n; n=0 for no limit Is this a known problem?

Thanks David!
Are there any plans as to how to include it in the GHC tree? Does it
ship with all the libraries required to build the build system, will we
have a mini-build system to bootstrap it? If I recall correctly, we rely
on Cabal sandboxes on Linux/OSX and global Cabal library
installations on Windows in order to run it.
The simplest way is to add the 'shake-build' folder to the GHC tree and
ask first adopters of the new build system to globally install the
dependencies (ansi-terminal, mtl, shake, QuickCheck). Then 'build.sh'
and 'build.bat' scripts should work.
I am open to suggestions on how to make this more convenient and
robust. I've never used anything more advanced than a global cabal
installation, so I'd appreciate input from more experienced users.
Could you create a ticket on github suggesting possible approaches?
I'm afraid our discussion may get lost in ghc-devs mailing list.
Many thanks!

Great work Andrey!
I'm actually (pleasantly) surprised this is becoming part of the GHC
tree so soon
.
