Oh, my bad. I removed this because alex is included in the Platform, so it seemed like it'd always be available. I'll add it back.
Not *everyone* has the Platform installed! (I prefer to install ghc and then just the libraries I need via my package manager).
So you're saying that the Platform is pointless? I think there's some miscommunication going on somewhere, if we're all going to pretend it doesn't exist.
No, my meaning was that the reasoning of "I don't need to specify this as a dependency since it's part of the Platform" isn't sound since not everyone has the Platform.
The point of the Platform is to provide a baseline. So you *are* saying it is pointless, because you want packages to confirm to a different baseline. - -- brandon s. allbery [linux,solaris,freebsd,perl] allbery.b@gmail.com system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] kf8nh -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk2RM5MACgkQIn7hlCsL25UgggCg01PqGZflU7EQdEa03TR9sMEE CrwAoICxWlsJmPhhq3MEbSdkzyR1x+CL =km8w -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
