I do have commit access now, but for the moment I’m keeping to the
branch wip-haskell-updates.
Thus, I’d ask you (or someone) to merge that (or the parts you deem
appropriate). I’ve incorporated your comments, and removed
ghc-packedstring. In addition, the branch incorporates some other
patchsets:
#36493: updating GHC-included haskell dependencies (this one is already
in core-updates)
#36562: downgrade ansi-terminal to be compatible with the package set
#36663: adding elm compiler dependencies (just a few extra ghc packages)
#36692: GHC version 8.6.5 (just as a package for now, not used to build
anything)
#36807: this bug report, removing three deprecated packages
no ticket: Skip tests for three Haskell packages that fail on i686 only
(and seem harmless): ghc-trifecta, ghc-yaml, ghc-libmpd-haskell.
Cheers
Robert
