Does not compile with ghc-9.6

This package depends on selective < 0.7 and that does not compile with ghc-9.6.

I am currently getting around this in my cabal.project file using:

if impl(ghc >= 9.6)
  allow-newer:
    , validation-selective:selective

to allow the use of selective == 0.7.

select-0.6 now seems to compile with 9.6. Perhaps it had a restrictive upper-bound which has now been relaxed with a Hackage revision?

Yes, the Hackage version now works, but this issue should remain open until it has also been fixed in this repo.

Here is a revision: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/validation-selective-0.2.0.0/revisions/

  • tested with GHC 9.6.2
  • built with GHC 9.8.1-alpha1

Maybe a bit generous for the nervous packages base, hspec and doctest, but since this is a now unmaintained package, let's take the lazy approach.

Well, the issue title is now incorrect. It does compile with 9.6. Perhaps, to avoid confusion, there should be a new ticket to bump the dependency of selective to < 0.7 (if that is a valid thing to do, I haven't checked).
