#10550: Drop truncated package name prefix from package keys -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: ezyang Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.12.1 Component: Package system | Version: 7.11 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: None/Unknown | Unknown/Multiple Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: Phab:D1011 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by ezyang): * differential: => Phab:D1011 Comment: GHC plus Cabal PR: https://github.com/haskell/cabal/pull/2671 Simon, I added a note to the user manual; however, I think it might be better to arrange for GHC proper to never display raw package keys to users; always given them an IPID instead (falling back on the key only if something really bad has happened re the package database.) -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10550#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
