Well, what I've seen so far in [extra] on x86-64 hasn't impressed at all.  Having to do without stuff like mtl is a bit crippling. As for this particular point, you'll be happy to know that Vesa did indeed push mtl to extra (it was an oversight.)

Excellent. I'm also raising bugs on other packages as I bump into them (like haskell-network missing a dependency on haskell-parsec).

I do sympathize. I've mainly been rewriting PKGBUILDs and fixing a few source files to get things working again until the Hackage maintainers provide 6.12 compatible packages.

Yes, it will require a bit of work to get stuff fixed for 6.12, I was just really hoping that I would be able to easily get to the point where I can start checking my own code for compatibility... but I guess I was a bit too hopeful. ;-) /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe
