the type of System.Posix.Process.executeFile is not general enough
Because System.Posix.Process.executeFile
does not return, its return type should be IO a
, not IO ()
. This change would make it possible to use System.Posix.Process.executeFile
in a context that expects IO Int
or IO ProcessStatus
, for example.
I may well have assigned this bug to the wrong library.
