#14173: GHC hangs during type-checking -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: lightandlight | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.2.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Linux Architecture: x86_64 | Type of failure: Compile-time (amd64) | crash or panic Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- GHC 8.0.2 doesn't terminate when type checking this file: {{{#!hs import Control.Lens import Data.Functor.Compose traverseCompose :: (a -> f b) -> g a -> f (h _) traverseCompose = _Wrapping Compose . traverse }}} This is the smallest type signature I could find that still causes the problem. GHCi infers the type without issue, and when I annotate it with the correct type signature, the file is successfully compiled. Using base-4.9.1.0, lens-4.15.1, and transformers-0.5.2.0 -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14173 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
