I noticed that directory has a master-1.2.6 branch with at least one useful looking bug-fix on it. Is this the branch that you would prefer to be included in 8.0.1?

I was being cautious and didn't want to add new things between RCs. As long as no-one minds the minor version bump, then 1.2.6.0 would be preferable.

Given how much else has changed since rc2 I suspect directory will be the least of our concerns :) Would you be able to cut a proper 1.2.6 release in time for the 8.0.1 release? Cheers, - Ben

I should be able to. Any idea what that exact date will be?

Well, the release candidate 3 source distribution is going out today; the binary distributions will be available at latest a week from today. Then presumably we'll want at least a week of testing, so I'd say probably in two weeks or so. Cheers, - Ben

Alright, directory-1.2.6.0 has been pushed to master (74e5058) and I've added a note to indicate that it is bundled with GHC 8.0.1. Looks good?

Looks good to me. Thanks Phil! Cheers, - Ben

Does the ghc sub module still need this fix? I hit some build errors related to directory when I tried to build the tip of the 8.0 branch last night On Sunday, April 17, 2016, wrote:

I've bumped directory to 1.2.6.1 now after your PR (#47). Since it's a rather critical issue, GHC's submodule should be updated to this version.

3am? Yup that's after I tried to do the build so I'll try again today :) On Monday, April 18, 2016, Ben Gamari wrote:

The directory submodule was updated on the ghc-8.0 branch in 80894f2b83390de9c57f3711506a1a810bb86b30, which was committed around 03:30 EST.
