Yes, version 0.8.0.5.

I ran $ leksah-server -e DEBUG -s to locate the problem, that reported that it couldn't retrieve metadata, then "inGhcIO called with []", Start: ("ghc", ["--print-libdir"]), success report (forgot how that was worded), End: ("ghc", ["--print-libdir"]). After that, no more, so I added some more debugM calls to the server code. Printing the package description, liftIO $ debugM "leksah-server" $ "Description: " ++ show pd deepseq pd (return pd) hung at Statistics.Function.partialSort, getting as far as dscMbTypeStr' = Just " > What happens then is that leksah-server calls GHC-API and Haddock as a > library, which itself uses GHC-API. > So its a bit like running Haddock on a package, which usually may fail, > but it is uncommon to have this kind of problems.

Awesome. > But it should work now. Yup, can reach it again. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
