At work we use hardy and to get the latest haskell stuff I did the following: a) Install ghc-6.8. b) Add this to /etc/apt/sources.list: deb-src http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian unstable main non-free contrib c) Get the sources to ghc-6.10 using: apt-get build-dep ghc6 apt-get source ghc-6.10 d) Build the package and install it. e) Apt get the sources to the libraries and build/install them. Its painful and you do need to be reasonably comfortable with building debian packages, but it worked for me.

These machines have no keyboard, just a network connection (not particularly high bandwidth). How do you propose that I upgrade these machines? What do I do with the machines that fail during upgrade? Upgrading is not always the right answer.
