Vasili Galchin did a release of a new version of the unix library. http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/unix-2.4.0.0 Hmm :( This is a core package, maintained by libraries@, so shouldn't be being uploaded to hackage by 3rd parties. What can we do? -- Don

It's also been pointed out that the darcs version of the unix package is 2.2, while the version on hackage is 2.3. with cabal install now able to auto-grab the latest thing named 'unix' this is a little concerning. -- Don

Remove it.

Actually that's just because the packages that go with ghc HEAD have not had their versions bumped compared to the ones that came out with ghc-6.8.x. Though it does make one wonder what other patches did not make it to the HEAD branches. Duncan
