i plan to submit a package to hackage. i run it on my machine with a cabal file which has for all dependencies "any" (except for base, where it says >=4.0 -- see previous discussion on haskell-cafe). i am not certain, if my code runs agains any version, but i fear it is too restrictive to say >= "current version", which could exclude too much? testing against all previous versions of the packages seems complicated and very time consuming.what is the advice in this case?
I usually take a conservative approach, I only put in requirements that I can verify myself. However, I make sure to include all tests and if someone reports that it works with looser requirements then I'm happy to adjust it.
