Yes I completely agree. This is my first time getting involved in the haskell package game but it immediately struck me as a problem we shouldn't be having. I don't think I understand the situation well enough at this time to suggest a solution and I also don't really have much motivation to hack on a solution. But someone should :) Cheers, David > > Cheers, > Johan _______________________________________________ Haskell-platform mailing list Haskell-platform@projects.haskell.org http://projects.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haskell-platform
