Building fails with GHC 7.8.4

mrkkrp opened this issue 7 years ago · comments

I have a project that depends on JuicyPixels, and recently Travis CI with GHC 7.8.4 started to fail because JuicyPixels doesn't build anymore. Here is the log:

https://travis-ci.org/mrkkrp/identicon/jobs/306724560#L698

Version of the library Cabal tried to build is JuicyPixels-3.2.9.1, which I recon is the latest version.

I'd like to note that previously (probably with older versions of JuicyPixels) the build succeeded.

I'd merge a pull request for it, but I wont bother for a compiler version that's nearly 3 years old.

If you don't bother supporting this version of GHC, reflect it in the cabal file.

Do you actually run CI on this project? I don't see any badge and no .travis.yml file in the root.

@Twinside if you don't bother with GHC-7.8.4, please adjust the base lower bound.

I made revisions for broken releases on Hackage.
