Re: [arch-haskell] Switching from community+aur to haskell repo, missed something?

You should use `haskell-xmonad` package. `xmonad` is from [community] and has another set of dependencies. Fabio 2013/4/11 Sean Escriva :

I do have them before [extra]

Even just pacman -S ghc xmonad didn't seem to work right

Here's a section of the pacman.log messages, there's plenty more since I tried reinstalling things different ways several times:

I ended up switching back to community+aur to get things reinstalled, but can recreate the scenario or do further testing as needed

I tried to make a clean switch by uninstalling all haskell pkgs+ghc, but I missed something so now I'm getting an odd error when I try to install xmonad or xmonad-contrib:

soundwave ~ » sudo pacman -S xmonad resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts... error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: haskell-x11-xft: requires haskell-x11=1.6.1.1-3 :: haskell-x11-xft: requires haskell-utf8-string=0.3.7-26

More info on steps leading up to it: https://gist.github.com/webframp/bdfa579b5129ae5cd3ef

I've tried removing every haskell-* package and ghc, and reinstalling, no difference.

What am I missing?

In what order do you have the repos in your pacman conf? Do note that [haskell-core] (or [haskell], either still works) should go before [extra].
