 emily | whoops. sorry. GHC. | 14:05:13 |
| emily | you see, I am working with LLVM-related GHC patches :P | 14:05:28 |

 maralorn | Aaah, what is the point of having ghc-lib-parser spanning three ghc versions when fourmolu and ormolu track cabal-syntax anyway which is tightly coupled to the ghc release … | 12:16:17 |
| maralorn | I have now the choice of downgrading ghc-lib-parser, fourmolu and ormolu to build hls on ghc 9.10 or to upgrade Cabal/Cabal-syntax. Both either globally or in a quite large overrideScope. | 12:17:35 |
| maralorn | I feel like I am overlooking something because that didn’t feel as painful before … | 12:18:04 |
 Artem | maralorn: the very strict bounds that Ormolu puts on Cabal-syntax look strange. I'd ask on their bug tracker exactly the question you're posing above: if you use ghc-lib-parser, you probably want to span over at least couple of GHC, but you also always limit Cabal-syntax to one version, so this looks like mixed messages... They always bump Cabal-syntax when they bump ghc-lib-parser, so they at least understand some connection they just overly pessimistic about it it looks like. | 15:10:21 |
| maralorn | I guess using ghc-lib-parser might have other advantages than just the compatibility range … | 15:14:22 |
| Artem | maybe, but there seems to be no reason to be as strict about Cabal-syntax bounds: they use just a few basic things from it, and those don't really change | 15:20:45 |
