Hello,
To package the latest and greatest version of git-annex I need to have monad-control-0.3.
However this depend on the update of yesod and would break mongoDB as well.
I'm quite short on times these days and would like to know if this is gonna happen soon or not?
In the meantime I email the author of the mongoDB haskell package.
It's *very* unlikely to happen. As you probably noticed yourself any update to yesod would necessitate an update of attoparsec to at least 0.10, which in turn requires an update to text and text lives in [extra].
I didn't remember that this was so constrained. Did someone asked the maintainer? If there are good reasons to keep one of these packages at an old version then we should consider having multiple versions of such packages. I heartly persuaded that while we should keep that at a minimum we should have some packages at multiple versions. -- Nicolas Pouillard http://nicolaspouillard.fr
