[Hackage] #251: link to the latest version of a package tar file

#251: link to the latest version of a package tar file ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: ross(a)soi.city.ac.uk | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: HackageDB website | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.8.2 Platform: | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Dan Corson suggests: it would be good to have links to latest versions of a package file available for download. for example: something like {{{ http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/arrows/latest.tar.gz }}} would be a link to {{{ http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/arrows/0.4/arrows-0.4.tar.gz }}} this would greatly simplify automating installs. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/251> Hackage <http://haskell.org/cabal/> Hackage: Cabal and related projects
