yes, it is possible but have no any practical meaning because base library anyway shipped together with ghc and there are no alternative versions. if someone will make such versions, these versions may be installed in ghc (may be by hand because Cabal itself uses base :)
Base is shipped with GHC, so what? I can fetch the fresh base with darcs and build it.
base isn't compatible between major ghc versions (6.6/6.8). so you may use only base 2.0 with 6.6 or base 3.0 with 6.8. situation is different for other libraries - you can keep to use fps 0.7 with any ghc version because your program developed against it, or you can upgrade to new version if you need new features -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com
