Hi Simon, [Are you] avoiding use of cabal-install and hackage entirely? yes, I'm trying to provide a package for hledger 0.13 that can be installed using ArchLinux's native package manager. The current version is available here: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20762. How did

Hi Peter, no reason as far as hledger and hledger-lib is concerned, but one of the add-on packages, which depends on them, also requires process 1.0.1.4. If you install hledger or hledger-lib with the older version of process, then cabal is not able to install the add-on package. Sorry

I've released hledger 0.13, with readline editing and tab completion from Judah Jacobson, more ledger compatibility, a more robust and installable web interface, bugfixes, and a much-deliberated package split. Docs and mac and 64-bit linux binaries are at http://hledger.org , and of
