Unfortunately for me, I can't just import either of them qualified  to work around the issue - there's a mess whereby some of each's functions are being used in this file.\r\n\r\nHaving a perceived problem like this stops me using any type or info queries in the file and it basically gets used in all of our selenium tests so it's basically disabling type information for me in an entire project!\r\n\r\nAlso sorry I haven't come back with any more information on the template haskell thing - I'll try and get a decent sample back at some point, just I'm busy + it's not causing me pain right now!\r\n\r\nCheers\r\n\r\nJonny\r\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/JonnyRa","@type":"Person","name":"JonnyRa"},"datePublished":"2017-11-28T16:28:50.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/74/hdevtools/issues/74"}
