Documentation not generated

[crockeea]

I noticed that (for example) repa-3.3.1.2 doesn't have any documentation on hackage. I posted this on a repa forum and the dev responded with

"Thanks, I've pushed a new version. We'll see if that triggers Hackage to rebuild the docs. The docs build locally, so if Hackage isn't building them I suppose it's a Hackage bug."

which I am now dutifully reporting. I've noticed this problem with other packages as well; I'll try to post those as I rediscover them.

Now that I've found three pacakges where this is an issue:

1. What's causing it?
2. Is there a way to go back and generate docs for missing versions?

For your reference, here's another package for which documentation was not generated: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/open-typerep

It looks like repa-3.3.1.2 got documentation after a while, but repa-3.3.1.1 and repa-3.2.5.1 still do not have any documentation.

Another package: singletons, before version 0.9.3. I diff'd 0.9.2 (no documentation generated) and 0.9.3 (documentation generated), and the changes to the package are extremely minimal, certainly nothing that should affect doc generation.

Duplicated issue: #265

@Daniel-Diaz Except mine was first :-P

[Daniel-Diaz]

@crockeea You're right. I didn't see the date.

Duplicate of #265

Hmmm, shouldn't GitHub mark this issue as a duplicate was the syntax in the previous comment wrong?

[gbaz]

closing this as its an old ticket and it doesn't serve to have lots of redundant ones floating around.

So what's the "master" ticket for all the doc builder problems? Simply closing tickets doesn't make the problem go away... 😉
