#13893: Improved Help for Control.Concurrent and Control.Exception when "variable not in scope" -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: vanto | Owner: (none) Type: feature request | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.2 Resolution: wontfix | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Poor/confusing | Unknown/Multiple error message | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by bgamari): * status: new => closed * resolution: => wontfix Comment: As with #13883, I agree there is a problem here but don't believe the compiler is the right place to solve it. This is the exact sort of problem which you want external tooling to solve. Afterall, in the case of `cabal new-build` GHC doesn't even know of all of the packages available. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13893#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
