Hi all!

I'm fixing up a few things in the repos which means I have to take them
offline for a little while. They should be back up and working within a
diel I hope.

Is "diel" a day?

Is it possible to do major updates the repos in for example:
    ~haskell/core/$arch_new
and then move the directories in place when ready?

I don't mean to sound tetchy. I just wondered if thing could be done
without impacting the effort required by you, but impacting bystanders
less.  I do appreciate the effort put in to provide this repository.

"Diel" is a very useful word: http://wordsmith.org/words/diel.html

Sure it would be. However, the machine hosting the repo is rather
limited (I've been asked to limit the storage I use in the past) so I
feel I can't really keep around two copies of the repos. Of course I
could use links to limit the used storage, but the repo handling is
already *very* manual, I'm not really keen on adding more manual steps.

Was it some bad timing on my side or does everybody needs to remove and
reinstall all packages? I had to do so because build numbers were not
bumped after upgrading to ghc-7.10.3-3?

The recent update seems to have broken my box. After cleaning up everything (removing ghc), installing? xmonad and xmonad-contrib will force downgrading some packages (such as haskell-x11). Then trying to install `haskell-stack` would fail.

Is this a known problem ?

Cheers,

 That makes sense. For some reasons I was still using the community version of these 2 packages unaware about the "haskell-" prefixed variants.
?I actually ended up building them both with `haskell-stack` (which I guess is an alternative solution).

Thanks for your quick input.

No, I haven't heard of this before.

First of all, removing ghc should trigger a removal of *all* haskell-*
packages, including haskell-xmonad. Your wording above makes me suspect
that you are trying to mix haskell package from [haskell-core] and
[community]. Don't do that! :)

Instead of installing xmonad and xmonad-contrib (both from [community]),
install haskell-xmonad-contrib (from [haskell-core]). Please report back
if that doesn't work.
