are we going to try to make cabal-install binaries available for tier 1 platforms? On Fri, Feb 28, 2014 at 6:02 PM, Austin Seipp wrote:

That sounds good to me. I'm setting up the RC2 builds now, so we can update our Cabal copy to the latest release after that, for the final release. Right now we're at e97aa58f68519db54de1c62339459ebb88aed069, which is just ahead of 1.18.1.3.

As Duncan noted to me, we'll also have to do a cabal-install release, to make sure that it can build with the adjusted version bounds present in 7.8.

Herbert, Duncan - any other input?

Thanks Johan!

Hi,

I know we're waiting until the last minute before the Cabal release that need to go into 7.8. Should I make that release now?

johan, any chance this can get cherry picked for cabal-install 1.18? https://github.com/haskell/cabal/pull/1707 :)

(Note that 1.18.1.3 is not a released version, just a version bump in the repo in preparation for the release.) The 1.18 branch is currently at 0d5ffeb91075739246627da17bda945aedc6a427 and I'm worried that ee6d1cf5cefe18f6d74ed379af21d92f8b0ae92d hasn't seen enough testing. Duncan suggested ( https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/1660) that this change should be included in a GHC RC, but since that's a bit annoying I'll try a Cabal RC instead.

As Duncan noted to me, we'll also have to do a cabal-install release, to make sure that it can build with the adjusted version bounds present in 7.8.

Will do that when I do the Cabal release. -- Johan
