Re: Stuck again on submodules

Does this help: git submodule update libraries/Cabal/ ? Janek Dnia czwartek, 9 maja 2013, Simon Peyton-Jones napisał:

Help! I can't build ghc!

I get this utils/ghc-pkg/Main.hs:1160:24: Not in scope: `showSimpleInstalledPackageInfoField' Perhaps you meant `showInstalledPackageInfoField' (imported from Distribution.InstalledPackageInfo)

And indeed, my libraries/Cabal is way behind

simonpj@cam-05-unx:~/code/HEAD$ cd libraries/Cabal simonpj@cam-05-unx:~/code/HEAD/libraries/Cabal$ git log -1 commit 14c5a3f78c00772cf54c2fd5c920a64d53e6f594 Author: Gabor Greif Date: Wed Mar 20 22:27:15 2013 +0100

Fix typos

"git submodule status" says 14c5a3f78c00772cf54c2fd5c920a64d53e6f594 libraries/Cabal (1_10_branch_forked-1682-g14c5a3f) 1f9f7175e747aad7c424f5b12be5b95f15286f0b libraries/Win32 (2009-06-25-50-g1f9f717) ...etc

In another tree entirely "git submodule status" says b4d0c0... libraries/Cabal which looks right, because that commit does futz with showInstalledPackageInfoField.

So it looks as if my main GHC repo somehow has the wrong commit for Cabal. How do I make it right?

This is so frustrating. Thanks
