Re: [web-devel] base-unicode-symbols not compiling

Interesting, thanks for the pointer. I tried compiling 0.2.1.1, and sure enough it worked. However, 0.2.1.4 breaks. I suppose I can add an explicit ==0.2.1.1 to the pool package, but that seems like a suboptimal solution. Michael On Thu, Apr 21, 2011 at 7:05 AM, Chris Smith wrote:

I know in one application of mine, I had to add an explicit dependency for version 0.2.1.1 in order to get it to compile on GHC 6.12.3.  That might be worth a shot.  I'd heard that there was a fix in a later version for the issue I had, but if you're still getting failures, perhaps adding a version bound would help.

Then again, this may be related to people not running cabal update since the fix was released... so maybe the first answer is to suggest a cabal update.

Hi Bas,

I'm getting sporadic bug reports about base-unicode-symbols not compiling, which is preventing Yesod from compiling. I actually got the same error on GHC 6.12.1, and hacked around it by manually modifying the file to avoid the problematic CPP code. You can see a report in a Yesod book comment[1].

I think I remember you saying this is a problem with the CPP in GHC 6.12.1. Do you know if there's any workaround?

Thanks, Michael
