#10411: Neighbour let-bindings are not reported as relevant -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Feuerbach | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | 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: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonpj): GHC reports an enclosing binding as "relevant" if its type mentions a type variable used in the type of the hole. Here we have `b :: forall t1.t1`, whereas `a::Bool`. So `a` is not mentioned as relevant. You obviously wish that it was. How could we define "relevant" better?
