#9046: Panic in GHCi when using :print -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: quchen | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.8.4 Component: GHCi | Version: 7.8.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Unknown/Multiple | Difficulty: Unknown Type of failure: GHCi crash | Blocked By: Test Case: | Related Tickets: tests/ghci.debugger/scripts/print036| Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonpj): This is clearly a bug. (All panics are, really.) And hence embarrassing to have open for so long. But I didn't write the code for the GHCi debugger, and I only partly understand it. It needs love and care from someone. At the moment this ticket is sitting in my "look at this when I have time" pile, but I never have time. It would be great if someone was willing to take the time to dig into how the debugger works, and maybe "own" it for the future. The good thing is that it's only one or two modules, and there are few non-local ramifications, so it's a well-contained collection of issues. Also, this ticket a show-stopper for anyone?
