#170: pkg-config uses a more general version scheme
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
Reporter: duncan | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.8.0.6
Severity: normal | Keywords:
Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.10.4
Platform: Linux |
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
Comment(by duncan):
We do need to parse the version because people can use arbitrarily
complicated version constraints, not just ">= x.y". I think we just need
to do it properly and have pkg-config versions use a different type
internally than `Version`, and use different version comparison code.
