`cabal install hlint` fails with ghc-9.10.1 #1593

Open shayne-fletcher opened 6 months ago

shayne-fletcher commented 6 months ago

this is expected (and the failure to produce a build plan deliberate).

the current version of hlint requires a ghc-lib-parser-9.8.* these versions of ghc-lib-parser cannot be built by compilers > ghc-9.8 (e.g. ghc-9.10.1).

the next version of hlint will upgrade to the ghc-9.10 api (https://github.com/ndmitchell/hlint/pull/1594). when released, that version will be build compatible with compilers in [ghc-9.6.1, ghc-9.10.1].

Hi.. Any updates on when this'll go through? I understand it's a complicated process with lots of moving parts.. Your efforts to keep hlint available with evolving GHC is really appreciated!

see https://github.com/ndmitchell/hlint/issues/1613#issuecomment-2323457064 why this ticket should remain open until hlint is released to hackage.
