Folks,
I'm not sure who to email about this, but hopefully someone on the cafe knows:
On the machine which builds the Hackage packages the 'binary' package is built against 'bytestring-0.9.1.2', however the package I just uploaded gets built against 'bytestring-0.9.1.3' which leades to typecheck failures (the ByteStrings I get from the 'binary' package are not the same as all the other ByteStrings). See:
http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/uuid/1.0.0/logs/failure/ghc-6.8
If I wait will Hackage eventually become consistent? How does this work?
You can re-compile parsec and binary to depend on bytestring-0.9.1.3. Alternatively, use cabal-install which knows how to rebuild things to avoid consistency problems like this. Cheers, Simon
