OK, so in a nutshell: Everything is fine with the binary releases, it can just be the case that different platforms might see different package versions of non-core packages. No big deal to upgrade/downgrade later, given our package system/Cabal.
We should possibly do something like having only odd second components (e.g. version 2.3 but not version 2.4) in darcs repos so we can at least spot these unstable version numbers. Then to do a release you'd push the three patches Version=2.4; tag 2.4; Version=2.5 all at once.
This makes sense, and it would be good if all packages in darcs.haskell.org/packages agreed on this numbering scheme. One minor question: Who will actually push those three patches and when? Cheers, S.
