[Haskell-cafe] HackageDB is not for ... ?

That is good, if I find other package, that satisfies my requirements (or
does, with my patch). But that's a solution for a different case. Consider
(1) and (2) to be conceptually unique.

That's what I meant by [Solution B]. 
Let's name this package A. The problem arises when I want to publish
something, that depends on A. 
And if I publish 3 such packages, that depend on A? Then I have to merge A
with all three. I also have to do my own versions control, because some may
requier newer A, some - older A. That's a lot of manual administration.
