[darcs-devel] [issue300] Impossible case at PatchRead.lhs:56

[Greg Buchholz]

New submission from Greg Buchholz <haskell at sleepingsquirrel.org>:

Here's a darcs failure I recieved today...

darcs get --partial --repo-name=depends/filepath http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/fp/darcs/filepath

darcs: bug in darcs!
Impossible case at PatchRead.lhs:56 compiled 08:35:51 Oct 13 2006
Please report this to bugs at darcs.net,
If possible include the output of 'darcs --exact-version'.

...I was having problems building the YHC haskell compiler, which I had
downloaded with darcs-1.0.3 and it was suggested that I upgrade to a
newer darcs, which is how I got this error.  Here's the output of...

~/haskell/YHC/yhc$ darcs --exact-version
darcs compiled on Oct 13 2006, at 08:41:26
# configured Fri Jun 16 14:55:21 EDT 2006
./configure --no-create --no-recursion

Context:

[TAG 1.0.8
Tommy Pettersson <ptp at lysator.liu.se>**20060616160213] 

...I'm assuming that this is caused by some incompatability between
1.0.3 and 1.0.8.  Hope this is of help.
