#2496: Invalid Eq/Ord instances in Data.Version -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.0.1 Component: Core Libraries | Version: 6.8.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Phab:D395 Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by bgamari): While cleaning up things for the 8.0 release I noticed a TODO in `Data.Version` mentioning this ticket. My read of this discussion is that the original plan was to remove `versionTags` (at least from the `Eq` instance, if not the field itself) in GHC 7.12 (now 8.0). This has not yet happened. It would be nice to have some guidance from the Core Libraries Committee regarding what is slated to happen on this front in this release. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2496#comment:25 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
