1.9.3.tar.gz The package is called 'task' by upstream in all distro files they provide too.

ssion is completely pointless at this point in time. When we start adding many more packages, and we don't ourselves build those packages, then this is problem is likely to re-appear. However, the ArchHaskell project would first need make yet another 180-degree turn on its goals. /M -- M

one. I would argue though that the current Arch way actually is somewhere in between what you call "Real deps" and "Current Arch way", simply because some package maintainers know what the real dependencies are and will put them in. Other package maintainers try to build in a chroot until it succeeds, and hence up at "Current Arch way". In any case, this whole argument is rather besides the point :-) /M -- Magnus Therning                      OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: mag...@therning.org   jabber: mag...@therning.org twitter: magthe               http://therning.org/magnus
