Here's what I've found/done so far:
- Distribution.ShellHarness uses the Permissions type from System.Directory,
which has now become abstract. I've asked Ian (who made the change) about
this, but I guess it'll require CPP as there's no window in which both APIs
are available.
After talking to Ian I think CPP is the right fix and I'll submit a patch,
though it would be nice if changes like this first used deprecation for a
single release to increase the window for making the change.
What's the status of this? Is there any chance to get this in some 2.5.x
bugfix release?
I do have this working now locally, just hadn't got round to submitting
the patches. There's a decision we need to take about whether to use
NoMonoLocalBinds or add quite a few (30ish) rather ugly looking type
signatures.
My vague plan is for this to be in 2.5.1, and to get that out before the
next Haskell Platform release, though I haven't started a discussion to
make sure there are no objections to that plan.
Given that it has been removed from the main repo
already (as far as I see), so this is not an issue there.
I don't quite follow this sentence - could you elaborate on what you
mean?
Cheers,
Ganesh
