#2061: ghc-pkg loops on mutually recursive package dependencies
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Reporter: trevor | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: None
Version: 6.8.2 | Severity: normal
Keywords: | Testcase:
Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) | Os: Linux
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
If you have two packages installed, A and B, with a dependency from B to
A, it is possible to create a cyclic dependency by then adding a
dependency in A to B and reinstalling it. The result is that ghc-pkg will
loop, not detecting the cycle.
