installing fast-logger-2.4.8 using cabal install on Windows fails #118

Closed Demki closed 7 years ago

On a fresh minimal ghc build, fast-logger-2.4.7 installs fine.
The error message:

Building fast-logger-2.4.8...
Preprocessing library fast-logger-2.4.8...

System\Log\FastLogger\FileIO.hs:15:0: error:
     error: macro names must be identifiers

A new version has been released to fix this issue.

To anyone who stumbles on this issue:

I ran into this issue because servant-server and/or warp rely on the 2.4.8 version of this library. I fixed the build error by moving from Stackage LTS 7.18 to 7.20 and updating the cabal file build-depends versions.
