Make a release (buildable with GHC-8.10.1) #6799

Closed phadej closed 3 years ago

phadej commented 4 years ago

The 3.2 branch is buildable with GHC-8.10.1 so we should make a release.

At the moment this is the only issue in 3.2.1.0 milestone. But if we need something backported, please speak up!

I think it would be great if the patch https://github.com/haskell/cabal/pull/6623 would be backported. It would be a huge benefit for hie-bios, since it simplifies the cabal cradles immensely, and therefore it would directly benefit ghcide, haskell-ide-engine and haskell-language-server.


Sorry if I am being pushy and annoying regarding this :/

The hack for #5119 should definitely be backported

phadej commented 4 years ago

why that hack cannot be turned into a proper fix. I don’t like the idea of indefinitely backporting hack. Please make a PR to master with a commit to master who it should be fixed and why it cannot be fixed now. It’s annoying but not deadly.

No long-lived hacks, Please.

I released Cabal-3.2.1.0. We don't have resources to make cabal-install-3.2.1.0, and cabal-install-3.4.0.0 is almost out of the door anyway.

Therefore closing.
