Portage slots for GHC?

[Dinko Tenev]

Hi,

I'm using GHC on Gentoo, and so far I've had to stay clear of GHC 6.6,
because I've also installed stuff depending on 6.4.2, like wxHaskell,
for instance.  Now I see a new version of mtl, which I also have
installed, depends on 6.6.1, while all of the rest of the stuff is
"lagging behind" with a dependency on 6.4.2.  Of course, I can easily
solve the problem partially by masking out the new version for mtl,
but this is going to become a major inconvenience with new versions of
GHC and its dependents.

What I'm getting at is, can we please have separate slots for GHC
6.4.2 and 6.6 on portage?


Cheers,

Dinko
