[arch-haskell] Current procedure to install Hakyll (with deps)

[Magnus Therning]

In this kind of case I much prefer to patch the cabal file instead. Cblrepo
will pick a configuration of dependencies that can be satisfied, however
that doesn't happen when running Setup.hs (then the explicit and default
flags are required). Patching the cabal file is, IMHO, clearer and more
explicit.

provide a flag to switch to newer blaze-html so a small patch to PKGBUILDs
permits the update.

In this kind of case I much prefer to patch the cabal file instead. Cblrepo
will pick a configuration of dependencies that can be satisfied, however
that doesn't happen when running Setup.hs (then the explicit and default
flags are required to result in a satisfiable configuration). Patching the
cabal file is, IMHO, clearer and more explicit.
