Getting newest versions of packages
Hello!
I am confused about how should I setup my development environment to
develop haskell packages. I want to improve cabal-debian-4.17.4, since
it provides only binary, and I it to provide library as well, because
it is much more flexible. To build it, I need haskell-debian-3.83.3.1
from experimental, which conflicts with almost everything. If I
upgrade ghc to experimental, it is okay, but now I fail to install
libghc-bool-extras, which is my package and now in sid. I am okay on
tracking bleeding edge. Where can I read how all this works?
Also, I plan to package git-vogue binary, but it depends on base >=4.7
(ghc-7.8). What is its fate? Is it any way I can speed up moving of
ghc-7.8 into at least sid? 7.10 is coming, and we have only 7.8 even
in experimental.
Same question applies to, for hlint. In experimental it is outdated,
I am working on getting hlint-1.9.15(which depends `extra` library),
but how should I check, that this update will not break something?
Again, please point me to memo, how does this all works?
