Fwd: Error compiling transformers-base-0.4.1 (debian 64 bits, ghc-7.4.2)
Thank you Sjoerd,
Unfortunately this does not work.
I think the problem is linked to the evaluation of the condition (in
Base.hs)
#if !MIN_VERSION_base(4,4,0) && HS_TRANSFORMERS_BASE__ORPHANS
Just as a test, I modified the file and added the following lines
A. negation of min_version
#if *!*MIN_VERSION_base(4,4,0)
rgfyfgruyfgreuy -- making sure the compilation fails
#endif
B
#if MIN_VERSION_base(4,4,0)
rgfyfgruyfgreuy -- making sure the compilation fails
#endif
In both case the compilations failed (cabal clean, configure, build). That
is, it seems that the #if always evaluate to true...
I am surely missing something here...

There's a flag to turn it off, does that work? Try cabal install transformers-base -f-OrphanInstances

I am running into problems when installing transformers-base-0.4.1.
Has anyone an idea about what is going on?
REM : this is a "brand new" debian install, I have just install ghc, cabal install cabal-install etc.
Thank you

Hello again,
After some more investigation, it seems that conditional compilation does
not work properly.
All pragmas such as
#if some-cabal-defined-macro (...)
always evaluate to true.
I made sure to have cpphs installed but that did not solve my problem.
Any idea?
Thank you
Regards
