Package: haskell-mode
Version: 2.0-1
Severity: normal
XEmacs includes a version of a Haskell mode in
/usr/share/xemacs21/xemacs-packages/lisp/haskell-mode , while I also
have installed a different (more recent) version from the haskell-mode
package in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/haskell-mode . When I start a
fresh XEmacs (with '-no-init-file' to be safe) I get a message
turn-on-haskell-font-lock is obsolete. Use turn-on-font-lock instead.
on the mode line. I haven't investigated completely, but this message
seems to come from the file
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/haskell-mode/haskell-mode.el (in the
haskell-mode library), while the call to 'turn-on-haskell-font-lock'
seems to come from the autoloads generated from the version included
in XEmacs, where this call was not declared obsolete.
Whose bug is this? Is it haskell-mode's bug, for stepping on the toes
of a package included in XEmacs?
This may be a general issue of loaded files included with xemacs and
separate add-ons.
It might be a consequence of this interaction, but the font-lock mode
does not in fact work when editing a literate Haskell file (ending
with .lhs): there are constant complaints of the form
(5) (warning/warning) Error caught in `font-lock-pre-idle-hook': (error No such
face haskell-default-face)
Apologies if this is not a bug with haskell-mode; please redirect as
appropriate.
Peace,
Dylan

Since I can't see the package version of haskell-mode from xemacs -q,
and font lock now seems OK in .lhs, I think this bug can safely be
closed.
Haskell mode doesn't seem to work very well in xemacs, but that should
probably be reported seperately if someone is still interested.
All the best,
David
