I just installed the beta release for Ubuntu Gutsy, and I noticed that gtk2hs (provided by libghc6-gtk-dev) is still at version 0.9.10.5-1ubuntu1. Worse, it's apparently not installable; when I try I get this message: libghc6-gtk-dev: Depends: ghc6 (<6.6+) but 6.6.1-2ubuntu2 is to be installed Depends: libghc6-cairo-dev but it is not going to be installed Do any of you guys know why this wouldn't include a newer version? Probably just an oversight, I'm guessing. -- Chad Scherrer "Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana" -- Groucho Marx

GHC does not have a stable binary interface, so binary libs for 6.6.0 will probably crash if linked by 6.6.1. Stefan
