I'm installing a GHC-6.8 snapshot, and compiling a bunch of libraries I need in the process (HTTP, HXT, and binary). No show-stoppers, but a lot of rewriting of the dependencies. At least ghc will tell me which package to add, and after a bunch of iterations of this, things work nicely. +1 to renaming the new base, and have 'base' be a compatibility package incorporating 'containers', 'array', etc, with compatible interfaces. (Versioning isn't as good, I think, because it's too common to specify just 'base' without any version. At least, I know I do.) -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants _______________________________________________ Haskell mailing list Haskell@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell
