#8486: cannot derive new-typeable instances for promoted data types taking parameters -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: aavogt | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: 5682 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by goldfire): #5682 is now fixed in HEAD, so these instances should indeed be definable. I suppose we can be sure that users don't define instances (because they wouldn't parse), so if this gets fixed in time in `base`, that might be mergeable into 7.8.1. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8486#comment:6 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
