Re: testing cabal-install-0.25.2 with ghc-7.6.1

2012-09-18 Thread Jens Petersen
Hi

I think with the attached backport patch it is possible at least to
build the cabal-install-0.15.1 source included in ghc-7.6.1's src
tarball with ghc-7.6.1.

Indeed

 Try building cabal-install using revision
 e7e7ce1029707a67d26e6dc29de11141734898e3

I don't doubt that it builds with the Cabal in cabal-1.16 branch
but that does not help Haskell Platform 2012.4 unless there
will be a ghc-7.6.2 release before it.

I think it is better to think of Cabal-1.16.0 as the Cabal in ghc-7.6.1...

 Hi,

 I managed to build cabal-install-0.25.2 (from the cabal-1.16 branch)
 with ghc-7.6.1 Cabal.

 However the use of viewAsFieldDescr in
 cabal-install/Distribution/Client/Config.hs
 causes problems due to the:

   error Command.optionToFieldDescr: feature not implemented

 Can it be so that ghc-7.6.1 ships with an older snapshot of Cabal-1.16?

If that's the case then that's really bad. GHC should not ship with
random snapshot of branches.
