#9764: Home package modules silently override available modules from package database -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: ezyang Type: feature | Status: new request | Milestone: Priority: normal | Version: 7.9 Component: Compiler | Keywords: Resolution: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: | Difficulty: Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Type of failure: GHC | Related Tickets: accepts invalid program | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonpj): Wait. If you say `-hide-all-packages` then there are no packages in scope, so how can there be any conflict? Perhaps you mean to propose this: * If you have an explicit `-package p` flag * And a home-package module whose name conflicts with one exposed by `p` * Then at least warn of the conflict Was that what you meant? That would not imply any discrepancies, would it? Simon -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9764#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
