Thanks, good to hear.

With a bit of digging I've also managed to find and fix the upper bound 
that was causing my other dependency problem - priority-queue can depend 
on containers < 0.5 rather than < 0.4.

I've been in touch with the maintainer, James Cook, who says (a) he'll 
try and get round to releasing a new version with this upper bound 
relaxed, and (b) there are more specialised implementations of priority 
queues these days that will be more performant, so I should prefer those.

Cheers,
