#10566: Move "package key" generation to GHC -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: ezyang Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.12.1 Component: Package system | Version: 7.10.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: None/Unknown | Unknown/Multiple Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: Phab:D1056 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by ezyang): I was thinking about this situation some more, and I realized that we can actually avoid having to have Cabal query GHC for the package key, if we adopt a convention: the version hash of a package is the SAME as the package key, if the package is definite. I've repushed the pull request with this in mind. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10566#comment:9 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
