I did a quick check trying to find out the additional dependencies (relative to what 'cabal-install' currently depends on) http-client-tls would pull in (it seems http-client and tls each roughly account for half the ~50 deps below): async-2.0.2 base64-bytestring-1.0.0.1 blaze-builder-0.4.0.1 byteable-0.1.1 cereal-0.4.1.1 clock-0.4.5.0 cryptohash-0.11.6 data-default-class-0.0.1 data-default-instances-base-0.0.1 data-default-instances-containers-0.0.1 data-default-instances-old-locale-0.0.1 dlist-0.7.1.1 data-default-instances-dlist-0.0.1 data-default-0.5.3 cookie-0.4.1.4 hashable-1.2.3.2 case-insensitive-1.2.0.4 hourglass-0.2.9 asn1-types-0.3.0 asn1-encoding-0.9.0 asn1-parse-0.9.0 crypto-pubkey-types-0.4.3 http-types-0.8.6 mime-types-0.1.0.6 pem-0.2.2 primitive-0.6 securemem-0.1.7 crypto-cipher-types-0.0.9 cipher-aes-0.2.10 cipher-des-0.0.6 cipher-rc4-0.1.4 socks-0.5.4 streaming-commons-0.1.12 transformers-compat-0.4.0.4 exceptions-0.8.0.2 utf8-string-1 publicsuffixlist-0.1 http-client-0.4.11.1 vector-0.10.12.3 crypto-random-0.0.9 crypto-numbers-0.2.7 crypto-pubkey-0.2.8 x509-1.5.0.1 x509-store-1.5.0 x509-system-1.5.0 x509-validation-1.5.1 tls-1.2.17 connection-0.2.4 http-client-tls-0.2.2 In contrast, I was surprised to see, that extending the HTTP package (or maybe just writing a 'HTTPS'-companion package) to use HsOpenSSL seems to pull in 'HsOpenSSL' as the only additional package... For comparision here's what http-streams (which I'm not suggesting right now, as I think going the 'HTTP'+'HsOpenSSL'-route would be better currently) would pull in (which could have a few deps less if it didn't pull in 'aeson'...): HsOpenSSL-0.11.1.1 base64-bytestring-1.0.0.1 blaze-builder-0.4.0.1 bytestring-builder-0.10.6.0.0 dlist-0.7.1.1 hashable-1.2.3.2 case-insensitive-1.2.0.4 primitive-0.6 scientific-0.3.3.8 attoparsec-0.12.1.6 syb-0.4.4 unordered-containers-0.2.5.1 http-common-0.8.2.0 vector-0.10.12.3 aeson-0.8.0.2 zlib-bindings-0.1.1.5 io-streams-1.3.0.0 openssl-streams-1.2.1.0 http-streams-0.8.3.1 Cheers, hvr _______________________________________________ cabal-devel mailing list cabal-devel@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cabal-devel
