#15726: Don't include Haskeline (and others) in the global package DB -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: judah | Owner: (none) Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Build System | Version: 8.6.1 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 bgamari): Indeed this sounds reasonable to me. The only possible issue is that it would also be no longer possible to link against the `ghci` library that ships with GHC (since it depends upon `haskeline`). However, I suspect this won't be a problem since GHC is more-or-less a normal Haskell package which `Cabal` should be able to install on its own. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15726#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
