Hi Peter,
[haskell] Server = http://andromeda.kiwilight.com/$repo/$arch
It looks like the packages there do not have specified the exact version (including pkgrel) in their dependency info (as an example I looked at haskell-yesod). If it would be included then pacman can check consistency of the installed set of binary packages. Is it planned to add the full exact version to the dependency info?
you are right, we should do that. The tool-chain *almost* supports it. The only thing that's missing is the ability to specify the $pkgrel to depend on. I've opened a ticket here: http://github.com/archhaskell/cabal2arch/issues/issue/24 As soon as that ability has been added, we can re-generate the HABS tree to specify dependencies with exact version numbers. I would assume that this makes sense only for library packages, though, right? Or is anyone aware of a reason why we might want to depend on a very specific version of a tool like c2hs? Take care, Peter
