#8466: Aggregate “ambiguous import” errors for the same name -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: nomeata | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by simonpj): I do rather agree with you, but it's a user question so let's get more user feedback. A very simple, but brutal, way to achieve this would be to aggregate error messages that were identical, as strings. We don't keep them as data, so the string (or rather `SDoc`) is all we have to do on. You could try this in `printMsgBag` in `ErrUtils`.
