HEADS UP: haskell{98,2010} and old-{time,locale} deleted
Hi all, When you update your trees, I'll have pushed D510 and D511, which remove the aforementioned libraries. After updating, you can just delete the repositories since git status will alert you about them now: $ rm -rf libraries/old-time libraries/old-locale libraries/haskell98 libraries/haskell2010 I'll be updating the users manual soon as I mentioned earlier this week. -- Regards, Austin Seipp, Haskell Consultant Well-Typed LLP, http://www.well-typed.com/

Does this mean that any code compiling against the current release of old-locale (1.0.0.6) will fail to compile with GHC 7.10.x? I ask because I note that old-locale (1.0.0.6) depends on base >= 4.2 && < 4.8 and presumably GHC 7.10.x will have a new "base" version? (Which will exclude old-locale 1.0.0.6 from any Cabal install plan.) If so, then this could be a problem. According to http://packdeps.haskellers.com/reverse/: old-locale: 367 reverse deps (1 outdated) old-time: 244 reverse deps (15 outdated) This would represent massive breakage AFAICT? Regards,

Oh it's quite simple, old-{time,locale} will continue to live on via Hackage; We'll upload GHC 7.10 compatible versions of those two packages to Hackage soon.

PS: I've already uploaded new {base-4.8,GHC-7.10}-compatible versions: - http://hackage.haskell.org/package/old-locale-1.0.0.7 - http://hackage.haskell.org/package/old-time-1.1.0.3 Cheers, hvr
Great. Thank you Herbert!
