I'm reopening this ticket so you can think a little better about the
#14076: cons operator for list give weird output -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: AshHash | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: GHCi | Version: 8.2.1 Resolution: invalid | Keywords: cons(:) Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by nomeata): * status: new => closed * resolution: => invalid Comment: problem, goldfire. There is, in general, no need to tell goldfire to think better. He already thinks frighteningly goo. Please, vanto, give the developers of GHC the benefit of doubt that they know what they are talking about, and what the appropriate status of a bug is (unless you are very sure that they made a mistake, which is of course possible. In that case point out their mistake in a friendly manner, and let them change the status back if they are indeed wrong). Anyways, GHC is doing everything right here (and it’s not GHC’s fault if Haskell can be a bit confusing sometimes). -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14076#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
