I'm not sure either for those core libs that have external maintainers like filepath etc, but for non-core like "time" it'd be much easier for you without -Werror. > utils/hsc2hs hsc2hs > libraries/array packages/array > libraries/base packages/base > libraries/bytestring packages/bytestring > libraries/Cabal packages/Cabal > libraries/containers packages/containers > libraries/directory packages/directory > libraries/editline packages/editline > libraries/filepath packages/filepath > libraries/ghc-prim packages/ghc-prim > libraries/haskell98 packages/haskell98 > libraries/hpc packages/hpc > libraries/integer-gmp packages/integer-gmp > libraries/old-locale packages/old-locale > libraries/old-time packages/old-time but no "time" > libraries/packedstring packages/packedstring > libraries/pretty packages/pretty > libraries/process packages/process > libraries/random packages/random > libraries/template-haskell packages/template-haskell > libraries/unix packages/unix > libraries/Win32 packages/Win32 Duncan _______________________________________________ Cvs-ghc mailing list Cvs-ghc@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-ghc
