#14648: ghc-pkg does handle unitids -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: lspitzner | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: ghc-pkg | Version: 8.2.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by lspitzner): Can't we just check if `show`/`disp` on the parsed value yields the input string, and print a warning if there is a difference? Is there any risk for false positives (cases where `input /= disp (read input)` for package- version strings without a tag)? Capitalization comes to mind, but i don't think it is a problem here, right? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14648#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
