Re: [reactive] Version conflicts despite hiding

So this is happening when people do cabal-install? I'm rather surprised it doesn't run through the installed libraries that it knows about and checks if they have a dependency on an updated package, recompiling if they do. 2008/12/17 Conal Elliott :

I'd like to improve my release process to avoid problems like this. I could re-release reactive-glut & reactive-fieldtrip whenever there's a new reactive release, and re-release reactive-fieldtrip whenever there's a new reactive-glut. While manageable for me, other people who build on any of these libraries--or any library--will have the same problem. I wonder what's causing the fragility here.

Any ideas?

However, when I try to compile Tetris or load it into ghci, it says that it can't match 'UI' (expected) with 'reactive-glut-0.1.4:FRP.Reactive.GLUT.UI.UI' (inferred) in dropPiece, and I've no idea where it is getting the latter from. There are no leftover .hi files or anything else in reach. Is reactive-fieldtrip a possible culprit? Yep, that was it. I reinstalled reactive-fieldtrip, and it works again.
