Will this issue be fixed?

It's really a shame that inline-c does not compile with recent versions of ghc because that blocks a whole lot of other packages, too, like inline-r. :-(

DanBurton commented 6 years ago

This particular issue should be trivial to fix; just add a Semigroup instance that matches the Monoid.

Well, there are two pull requests readily available, even: https://github.com/fpco/inline-c/pull/74 and https://github.com/fpco/inline-c/pull/66. I don't understand what is going on. :-(

sorry about the delay, i've merged #74 . i didn't get notifications, i believe because i was not a collaborator.
