I've backported many of the haskell libraries git-annex depends on in
the past months. I am now stuck on multiple fronts.
Current status is:
haskell-lens
Test suite fails on multiple architectures, so is not reaching testing.
haskell-dav
Needs lens in testing. Or a rather simple change to not need
this lens stuff, which looks more appealing with every day that
goes on :P
haskell-gnutls
Version in wheezy will sometimes crash with a segfault.
I have made multiple attempts to upload this to backports and
they have all been REJECTED.. except for my last try on Jun
17th, which appears to have gone into limbo instead.
haskell-network-protocol-xmpp
Will need to be rebuilt to use new haskell-gnutls version,
but currently wheezy and testing have the same version;
a new version is tied up in a ghc transition.
It does not seem possible to upload a newer version to
backports until testing has something newer, and I have not
investigated what would be needed to get a binNMU done in
backports.
While it would be possible to build a git-annex backport without XMPP or
WebDAV, these are rather important features.
