I think it really is offtopic now, but... IMO, Cabal and hackage should treat the base as just another library and should be able to install a fresh base when required. As far as i know, this is achievable to some degree by hands. Making the base "append-only" is not a good solution, IMO.
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 :) -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com
