Re: [arch-haskell] For the brave: alternative versioning in testing repo

It's for the [haskell-happstack] repository, I need to update the dependencies on [haskell-core] packages, Diff is just one example. As I understand the new format introduced after the versioning change does not support x-revisions for distro pkgs yet. Or am I not using it correctly?

A problem raised when I tried to updates my repository:

$ cblrepo add -d Diff,0.3.2_0,1 option -d: Cannot parse 'Diff,0.3.2_0,1' as PKG,VER,REL

Seems like cblrepo doesn't parse the underscore character in the version field.

Unfortunately old x-revisions aren't available in the Hackage index file, so I can't really see the value of adding with an explicit x-revision. That's probably just my limited imagination though ;) Is it just that you want to be able to pass the output of `cblrepo list` back into `cblrepo add`, or did you have some other use case in mind?
