Here's what I > got last I tried: I've backported many of the haskell libraries git-annex depends on in the past months. I am now stuck on multiple fronts. Current status is: haskell-lens Test suite fails on multiple architectures, so is not reaching testing. haskell-dav Needs lens in testing. Or a rather simple change to not need this lens stuff, which looks more appealing with every day that goes on :P haskell-gnutls Version in wheezy will sometimes crash with a segfault. I have made multiple attempts to upload this to backports and they have all been REJECTED.. except for my last try on Jun 17th, which appears to have gone into limbo instead. haskell-network-protocol-xmpp Will need to be rebuilt to use new haskell-gnutls version, but currently wheezy and testing have the same version; a new version is tied up in a ghc transition. It does not seem possible to upload a newer version to backports until testing has something newer, and I have not investigated what would be needed to get a binNMU done in backports. While it would be possible to build a git-annex backport without XMPP or WebDAV, these are rather important features. -- see shy jo
