Where can I read how all this works? bool-extras is new, right? Then we also need to upload it to experimental if you want to use it there. It is all very inconvenient to have the latest packages in experimental. I hope the release happens soon and we can go back to working as normal. > Also, I plan to package git-vogue binary, but it depends on base >=4.7 > (ghc-7.8). What is its fate? Package it for experimental. > Is it any way I can speed up moving of ghc-7.8 into at least sid? Yes, by speeding up the release :-) > 7.10 is coming, and we have only 7.8 even in experimental. Then plan is to put 7.8 into unstable after the release, make sure everything works and is migrated to testing, and then start working on 7.10. > Same question applies to, for hlint.

Feel free to package it, targeting experimental.
