Thank you for replying Philip,

The quickest way to transfer maintainership and resolve this would be for you add a new maintainer here: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/urlencoded/maintainers/edit

Francesco, what is your hackage username?

I'm sorry, I haven't touched that package in years and don't have any interest in maintaining it. It looks like I became maintainer because it wasn't even in version control when I got my hands on it. Maybe someone else can take it over, or surely there is a better alternative out there somewhere?

CC'ing the maintainer since that was left out,

Hi Philip, your package urlencoded does not build with network-2.6. Please let us know whether you are able to upload a new version fixing this issue, otherwise I intend to perform a non-maintainer upload in two weeks with a package takeover to possibly follow after that.

Cheers,

Adam

Trustees can widen bounds or perform a non-maintainer upload if the regular maintainer is unavailable, as outlined here: Trustees can widen bounds as outlined here: https://gist.github.com/bergmark/76cafefb300546e9b90e#2-metadata-only-changes-relaxing-constraints

I've opened an issue to track the progress: https://github.com/haskell-infra/hackage-trustees/issues/41

Cheers,

Hackage admins can modify the dependency version constraints. I believe that any other edits require a new release of the package.

The package urlencoded wasn't updated since 2012 and needs a minor modification in the .cabal file.

The author was contacted half an year ago, but he didn't respond, so -according to the instructions on hackage- I state my intention to take over.

Or, more simply, can an hackage admin just edit the cabal file?
