I don't know of an automated way to do this. I believe, some of the version constraints in src/rootInstall/nikki.cabal might be stricter than they could be. Unfortunately some constraints are needed. I went through the list of deps: - Hipmunk: Older versions contain space leaks. Also, versions <= 5.2.0.6 don't compile with ghc-7.4.1, I think. - sfml-audio: older versions won't typecheck - FindBin: I am not sure, but I think there was a bug in versions < 0.0.5. - clocked: Older versions have different APIs or different (worse) behaviour. - deepseq: There are instance clashes when using versions < 1.3 I see no problem with loosening the other dependency constraints as long as everything still typechecks.
