Re: nofib oldest GHC to support?

2018-09-30 Thread Joachim Breitner
Hi,

there is no policy that I am aware of, but being able to run nofib on
old (or even ancient) versions of GHC is likely to make someone happy
in the future, so I’d say that the (valid!) desire to cleanup is not a
good reason to drop support – only if it would require unreasonable
efforts should we drop old versions there.

Cheers,
Joachim

nofib oldest GHC to support?

2018-09-30 Thread Ömer Sinan Ağacan
Do we have a policy on the oldest GHC to support in nofib? I'm currently doing
some hacking on nofib to parse some new info printed by a modified GHC, and I
think we can do a lot of cleaning (at the very least remove some regexes and
parsers) if we decide on which GHCs to support.

I checked the README and RunningNoFib wiki page but couldn't see anything
relevant.

Thanks
