Bug ID: 1445210 Summary: missing dependency on ghc-Cabal-devel Product: Fedora Version: 25 Component: cabal-install Assignee: petersen@redhat.com Reporter: m@matejsmid.cz QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: haskell-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org, petersen@redhat.com
Description of problem:
All cabal install commands fail without ghc-Cabal-devel package installed. For users not familiar with haskell it is hard to resolve the problem. Cabal is often used as installer without any further haskell development.
The package ghc-Cabal-devel should be considerer as dependency.
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
$ cabal install array
Actual results:
Resolving dependencies... Configuring array-0.5.1.1... Failed to install array-0.5.1.1 Build log ( /home/kafka/.cabal/logs/array-0.5.1.1.log ): cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: array-0.5.1.1 failed during the configure step. The exception was: user error (The package 'array' requires Cabal library version -any && >=1.10 but no suitable version is installed.)
Expected results:
Resolving dependencies... Configuring array-0.5.1.1... Building array-0.5.1.1... Installed array-0.5.1.1

--- Comment #7 from Jens Petersen petersen@redhat.com --- I believe with cabal-install 2.x, the Cabal library is no longer needed for most packages at least those that do not have custom Setup.
