build failure w/ base-4.7 & base-4.6

Open hvr opened this issue 7 years ago • 4 comments

The cabal file advertises support for base >= 4.6 && < 5, however GHC disagrees:

I've already revised the 3 affected releases, so there's no immediate need for any action on your part; however please take this into account for future releases

Folks... What do we think about dropping advised support for those versions? I personally have no interest in maintaining compatibility with GHC 7.x.

Yes, as usual, 3 version support, 7.10 may survive until it compiles but no longer, for the older versions we should just do not allow that.

Okay, I'm going to update all the library ecosystem that way then. Can I leave you to do this for distributed-process/static, and close this bug?

Yes will try to do that today.
