hoogle Error with "hoogle data all" #55

Closed ulrivo closed 10 years ago

ulrivo commented 10 years ago

Hi,

with a freshly installed haskell-platform 2013.2.0.0 and a hoogle 4.2.28 I got for

"hoogle data all"

the error:

hoogle: Error when running Shake build system:

all.hoo
reactive-glut.hoo
reactive-glut.txt downloads/hoogle/reactive-glut/0.1.6/doc/html/reactive-glut.txt: hGetContents: invalid argument (invalid byte sequence)

Regards, Ulrich

The file in question is encoded with Latin1, while Hoogle assumes things are encoding in UTF8 by default, and if that fails, it falls back to readFile. My guess is that your environment specifies readFile to be UTF8, which means it fails. I'll change it to fall back to Latin1 more explicitly.

@ulrivo Can you please try version 4.2.29 and see if that works for you.

Hi,

hoogle 4.2.29 does the job.

Thank you very much.

Regards, Ulrich
