This is probably the best place to talk about the directory library, and where the maintainers will listen.<div><br></div><div>The directory package, while being on Hackage, is distributed with GHC. As such, the a given version of GHC generally only uses one version of directory. I would only expect bug-fix versions to work. For example, GHC 7.4.2 released with directory 1.1.0.2. therefore we don&#39;t expect directory 1.2.x.y. to work with GHC 7.4.z. It might, but no assurance.</div>

<div><br></div><div>All that said, I think a patch to make it work with 7.4 is great.</div><div><br></div><div>For future reference, the source repo is here: <a href="http://darcs.haskell.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=packages/directory.git">http://darcs.haskell.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=packages/directory.git</a></div>
