I also briefly looked at hackage.head. As far as I understand it doesn't

Hi Artem,
I think currently the best you could do is to clone primitive's git repo
locally and install it from there, using `cd primitive; cabal install

Hi,
This is working great, I just generated my first report. One problem is stm-2.4
doesn't compile with GHC HEAD, we need stm-2.5.0.0. But that's not published on
Hackage yet, and latest nightly still uses stm-2.4.5.0. I wonder if there's
anything that can be done about this. Apparently stm
