fgl version missing on hackage
Hi Ross, on http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/fgl there are fgl-versions 5.3, 5.4.1.1 However, ghc-6.8.3 was shipped with fgl-5.4.2.0 fgl-5.4.2.0 exports more functions (ie. xdfsWith) and I would like to use it with other ghc versions, too. Could you upload fgl-5.4.2.0? Cheers Christian

Since this is not a core library, and is maintained by Martin Erwig, he should probably be doing the hackage uploads now, as he releases new versions. Martin, have you used Hackage? -- Don

But Christian is talking about a release that has already been made, as part of a GHC release. There's a list of these here: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Libraries_released_with_GHC (I see that Win32's version number went backwards between GHC 6.6.1/6.8.1.) It might make sense for some of these versions to be extracted from the GHC source releases and placed on hackage.

I see, there is even a newer version fgl-5.4.2.1 http://web.engr.oregonstate.edu/~erwig/fgl/haskell/ I would very much appreciate, if these libraries were reachable via cabal-install, Martin.

columns for ghc-6.6 and ghc-6.6.1 are reversed

fgl-5.4.2.0 is the only library left that: - is not on hackage - has a blank entry for ghc-6.10.1 on http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Libraries_released_with_GHC - was shipped with ghc-6.8.3 or earlier ghcs (on the same page) So at least fgl-5.4.2.0 should be uploaded. (Version fgl-5.4.1 for ghc-6.6.1 is also missing) Cheers Christian

I uploaded it (the version in ghc-6.8.3) just before you posted.

yes, that's a good point to remember. ghc's moving out of the library maintainance business, in favour of hackage and the platform team. the gap between 'extralibs' released with ghc 6.10 and ghc 6.8 needs to be checked, to make sure those packages in the gap are on hackage. -- Don
