Many packages in [community] remain to be rebuilt against the new ghc.
Perhaps we should depend on specific ghc versions: that way pacman will enforce the dependencies: it won't really reduce the work required to upgrade ghc, but I think that it might be more clear that said installed libraries won't work.

That's an interesting idea. [community] is smaller than AUR, so it may be feasible to tag with the required GHC. I don't think this would help AUR, though. -- Don
