#3614: Cabal file parser can't handle colon in description
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
Reporter: dsf | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: libraries/base
Version: 6.12.1 RC1 | Severity: normal
Keywords: | Testcase:
Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
The description field of the cabal file in the haskell-mtl package
currently in debian sid contains an url with a colon, which leads to this
error:
ghc-pkg: 13: unrecognised field or section:
"(<http://web.cecs.pdx.edu/~mpj/pubs/springschool.html>),"
This comes from Cabal.Distribution.ParseUtils.
