#13981: Family instance consistency checks happens too early when hs-boot defined type occurs on LHS -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.4.1 Component: Compiler (Type | Version: 8.2.1-rc2 checker) | Resolution: | Keywords: hs-boot 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 inaki): I am starting to receive bug reports for the packages I maintain (these are the bindings for gtk and other libraries autogenerated by http://github.com/haskell-gi/haskell-gi) from people running into this issue. Is there some workaround I could apply to avoid the panic? I would be happy to help fixing the bug properly, of course, but I have not clue where to start, and that would in any case not help for the crashes with the already released 8.2.1. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13981#comment:9 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
