I've uploaded Takusen-0.8.5 to hackage, and it's visible at http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/Takusen
but "cabal install Takusen" still tries to get 0.8.4. Is there a separate database/file for cabal install which is rebuilt periodically, and it so, how often? i.e. how long is the delay between upload and being able to test cabal-install?
The database is
http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/00-index.tar.gz
It's updated before the upload returns, and indeed Takusen-0.8.5 is in there. A web caching glitch?
Possibly, within cabal? I said "cabal update" and that seemed to fix it. Does cabal-install check that it's local database is up to date? Alistair
