I've put together a package for 7.4.1, and then tried adding a few of the binary packages, and their dependencies. Here are the notes I took during it: darcs can't be added due to a ceiling on the dependency on unix, and that version of unix can't be added with base==4.5 several dependency ceilings that prevent adding the latest version of libraries xmonad-extras can be added (after darcs) without any problems What other Haskell binaries do we have in [extra] & [community]? ~~~ $ cblrepo-7.4.1 add -n darcs,2.5.2 array,0.3.0.3 filepath,1.2.0.1 hashed-storage,0.5.9 dataenc,0.14.0.3 mmap,0.5.7 mtl,2.0.1.0 zlib,0.5.3.2 transformers,0.2.2.0 text,0.11.1.13 tar,0.3.2.0 process,1.0.1.5 random,1.0.1.1 regex-compat,0.93.1 regex-base,0.93.2 regex-posix,0.95.1 parsec,3.1.2 old-time,1.0.0.7 html,1.0.1.2 haskeline,0.6.4.6 utf8-string,0.3.7 xmonad-contrib,0.10 xmonad,0.10 X11,1.5.0.1 syb,0.3.6 Failed to satisfy the following dependencies for darcs: unix >=1.0 && <2.5 && >=1.0 && <2.5 ~~~ /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus I invented the term Object-Oriented, and I can tell you I did not have C++ in mind. -- Alan Kay
