It's a good question: I kind of avoided going into detail on this point in the Change, since I was not intending to remove/drop the modules just yet. In the meantime I have added an optional ghcX.Y-compiler-default subpackage which allows making ghcX.Y the default ghc too though, so with that the modules no longer seem to provide any advantage. If there are no strong objections I think I will probably drop the modules before F37 anyway. But I didn't really want to frame this Change as "demodularization", but I will concede that maintaining the modules has been more stressful than I would like to admit. Most likely I will also switch EPEL to using ghcX.Y instead of modules. Jens
