With the most recent update to [haskell] things are looking a little bit better, but we're not quite there yet. At the moment I'm performing a fairly naive check and quite possibly a more detailed look will show that the move is already possible. I'll try to have a look at that during this week. Unfortunately I don't have to current list of breakages readily available (it's on my laptop at home). /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: [email protected] jabber: [email protected] twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus _______________________________________________ arch-haskell mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/arch-haskell
