I've just committed an update: our version of git-annex now supports
both the assistant and web front-end.

If this case happens to be an exception and that it appears to be hard
to package at this point in time let me know and I'll try to build it
with hack-nix.

The difference is that hack-nix resolves dependencies on the fly.
The challenge is to feed the resolvel with a minimal set of packages
because its using brute force.

For details have a look here:

did Joey ask us to do that? I wonder, because I sent Joey a pull request
on Github a while ago that would enable CI with travis-ci.org, but he
didn't seem interested in that.

Take care,

It looks like he meanwhile supports building with yesod-1.2 (b44c978).

I know nothing about our haskell packaging. Could we easily include a
git version of git-annex to help him debugging it further with
yesod-1.2? At least for me that would make things easier than working
with a manual checkout and setup.

right, I disabled the web-related parts of the build a while after Yesod
1.2 came out. I wanted that update because other packages (like hledger)
stopped working with Yesod 1.1, and packaging both Yesod 1.1 and 1.2 is
way too much effort. So I gave up git-annex assistant in order to go
forward.

I believe the only thing one can do is to e-mail Joey Hess and politely
ask him to update git-annex to Yesod 1.2. I've tried that, but it seems
like he hasn't had time to work on the issue so far.

Take care,
Peter
