failed to build with ghc 8.0.1

[cnd]

[hesselink]

Oh, I fixed this but it looks like I didn't release it. I'll make a release now.

[cnd]

@hesselink I was trying to build from master ...

[hesselink]

Oh, thanks, that's useful. I'll test again with GHC 8 on master.

[hesselink]

I've just tested again any my master builds correctly with GHC 8.0.1, building commit f45ff1fac5a11a06cb73113533503fad9931cc4b. What is the exact GHC version you're using, what commit are you building, and what build command are you using?

[hesselink]

I've also uploaded rest-types 1.14.1, which should build with GHC 8.

[cnd]

seems like I should build types from master before core and it was just my mistake :S

[hesselink]

Great, that helps! So while you're building rest-core from git, it's pulling rest-types from hackage. A cabal update should fix it, or build rest-types from git as well, like you said.

[hesselink]

Still, thanks for reporting, since I forgot to upload rest-types!
