I'm not sure why building of my recently uploaded version of dataenc fails to build on Hackage[1]. Where can I find out what version of base is available on Hackage?

The build client uses ghc 6.10.2 (including base 4.1.0.0). I'm not sure why base went up a major version number between minor releases of GHC.

Ah, that explains the failure to build.

Does your second comment mean that it's safe to put the version limits to ">= 4.0.0 && < 4.2"?

The upper bound will be fine now, but I don't know what version of base will be released with GHC 6.10.3. Shouldn't the lower bound be 4.0.0.0?
