So almost certainly the issue is that HaXml has updated and changed things around in a way that broke Hpodder; not surprising, since HaXml-1.19.2 is as recent as 14 January 2008, and Goerzen may simply not have updated and discovered the error before he released Hpodder in February.
I won't be updating it anytime soon, in fact. 1.19.2 is a development version, according to the author, so I will stick with 1.13.3 -- the stable, released version. Unfortunately, Hackage has no way to indicate stable vs. alpha, I guess. (That would make life easier here.) I suppose I ought to also post something on the hpodder wiki and update the Cabal build-deps so it gets the right HaXml version.
http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Package_versioning_policy seems to have something relevant to say. build-depends: HaXml >= 1.13.3 && < 1.14 ought to do the trick, since any changes in the published interface are supposed to be accompanied by a version bump in one of the first two numbers. -- Karl Hasselström, kha@treskal.com www.treskal.com/kalle
