#15254: Cabal submodule bump is needed -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: | Owner: (none) quasicomputational | Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.6.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.5 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Cabal HEAD has recently been somewhat broken (https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/5318) and the current submodule is pointing to a buggy commit. This only manifests when installing `build- type: Custom` packages, because that uses the bad code from the bootstrap Cabal; `build-type: Simple` will use good code from the external `cabal- install` process. Please bump the Cabal submodule to fix this. I've verified that the observed problem (`happy` breaking) goes away when this is done. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15254 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
