Compilation of directory package on GHC 7.4

[Dominique Devriese]

Dear all,

Could someone please confirm that this list is the correct place for
the below mail? The directory package mentions this list as
maintainer, but I see that Ian Lynagh performed the last upload, so
CC'ing him to be sure. Is the package perhaps not supposed to compile
any more on GHC 7.4?

Thanks,
Dominique
