hugodaniel / timerep Goto Github PK

Currently the rfc3999 package links to git://github.com/HugoDaniel/RFC3339.git, which redirects to this repo. Until the user tries to resolve that git repo though it appears to them that there are two active rfc3999 libraries on Hackage, rfc3999 and timerep. Perhaps rfc3999 could be marked as deprecated, and its description updated with a link to timerep?

http://hackage.haskell.org/package/timerep points to this repo, so I'm reporting here.

This is a known bug in GHC. Maybe it's possible to work around it by simply renaming the test suite?

I was wondering if you could address the build error on 7.2. It is preventing a project I'm working on from building on hackage. It looks like you may just need to add a FlexibleInstances pragma:

http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/rfc3339/1.0.4/logs/failure/ghc-7.2

The testParse function and other test-related functions in the primary source of the package could go to the test suite. Maybe that also justifies to base the test suite on something like tasty.

Hi Hugo

I got the error message when installing,

Resolving dependencies...

Data/Time/RFC3339.hs:60:10:
Illegal instance declaration for RFC3339 String' (All instance types must be of the form (T a1 ... an) where a1 ... an are *distinct type variables*, and each type variable appears at most once in the instance head.

cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
rfc3339-1.0.4 failed during the building phase. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1

I have confirm " {-# LANGUAGE TypeSynonymInstances, FlexibleInstances #-}" in the RFC3339.hs, it's no wired...

How can i solve it?

Don't forget to update the cabal file. :)

Stackage a set of Haskell packages that is known to compile together. I'd like to use timerep as a dependency on htoml, and register it on Stackage; but I cannot do both when your package is not already registered.

Thanks for considering!

As they are explicitly included from the tops of the files they are needed in.
