Remove newtype-generics dependency

Open brandonchinn178 opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

@conal I saw this dependency was added in 2016, but I'm not sure what the point of it is. Can it be removed?

Context: newtype-generics is not really maintained anymore: https://github.com/sjakobi/newtype-generics/issues/18. Since MemoTrie is used by ormolu and fourmolu, then making ormolu/fourmolu build with GHC 9.8 is blocked by newtype-generics because of MemoTrie.

cc @mrkkrp -- this is blocking getting Ormolu back into Stackage nightly
