Incorrect links are generated for modules in the index of "Haskell Hiearchical Libraries"
This was originally spotted and posted to the ghc-devs mailing list by Joachmin Breitner, but apparently since nobody has submitted a ticket for this relatively serious issue, here it is. I am quoting Joachim:
while the index at
http://haskell.inf.elte.hu/docs/7.11.20150222.noWin32/html/libraries/index.html
exists, navigating to
http://haskell.inf.elte.hu/docs/7.11.20150222.noWin32/html/libraries/Data-Char.html
yields a 404 error.
Same for
http://haskell.inf.elte.hu/docs/latest/html/libraries/Data-Char.htmlAnd I have replied the following to his initial email (I am involved in this because I am doing daily snapshots of the documentation through my FreeBSD GHC builders):
Yes, I can confirm this bug. For what it is worth, the files are all
there, the link appears to be broken: it is missing the subdirectory
with the name of the package. That is, the proper link should be
something like that:
http://haskell.inf.elte.hu/docs/7.9.20141222.noWin32/html/libraries/base-4.8.0.0/Data-Char.html
(Note the missing "base-4.8.0.0".) I have checked this with GHC
7.8.3, and everything is right there, while this problem seems to
appear with GHC 7.10 RC2 and GHC-HEAD (starting from somewhere between
mid-September and November -- that is what a quick bisecting tells
me).Trac metadata
