#4806: Make error message more user friendly when module is not found because package is unusable -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: mitar | Owner: (none) Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.0.1 Resolution: | Keywords: newcomer Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by sgillespie): I think the strategy should be to modify mkModuleToPkgConfAll to include all UnusablePackages in PackageState.hs. We could then add another constructor to ModuleOrigin (say, BrokenPackage) so that we could report it on lookupModuleWithSuggestions. Please correct me if this is not a reasonable approach. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4806#comment:24 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
