I'm working on the packaging of Ghc for Arch Linux and the packaging of Ghc 7.8 was in place about a week ago. It was delivered with `Cabal` 1.18, and already now there's a 1.20 available, which is required by the latest version of `cabal-install` :( Ghc 7.8 comes with quite a few other basic libraries. Are there any dependencies between these libraries besides the obvious one on `base`? In other words, can I update Cabal without running into the diamond-dependency problem? /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus Most software today is very much like an Egyptian pyramid with millions of bricks piled on top of each other, with no structural integrity, but just done by brute force and thousands of slaves. -- Alan Kay
