Judging from Simons comment¹ to the bug, inclusion will take longer than we want to wait. So we’ll have to add the process-leksah package to Debian temporarily. We should make it clear in the description that people should not use it for anything but building leksah. @Leksah-Devs: Just wondering, what exactly is the effect of your change? What breaks when working with the standard process library? Greetings, Joachim ¹„I need to properly review the patch. The API change looks fine to me, but the internal changes weren't obviously right when I just skimmed though the patch. Also there are some typos in the Haddocks. I'll make sure we get it done before 6.14.1 though.“ http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3994#comment:6 -- Joachim "nomeata" Breitner Debian Developer nomeata@debian.org | ICQ# 74513189 | GPG-Keyid: 4743206C JID: nomeata@joachim-breitner.de | http://people.debian.org/~nomeata
