Hello all, could it be, that the dev-haskell stack deps are broken/out-of-sync?
I tried to emerge pandoc today, which pulled in haskell, and I got lots of breakages. The tree is freshly synced. Anyway, I finally got it solved by masking: # grep haskell /etc/portage/* 2>/dev/null /etc/portage/package.mask:>=dev-haskell/text-1.0 /etc/portage/package.mask:>=dev-haskell/yaml-0.8.10.1 /etc/portage/package.mask:>=dev-haskell/blaze-builder-conduit-1.1.0 /etc/portage/package.mask:>=dev-haskell/tls-1.2 /etc/portage/package.mask:dev-haskell/text-stream-decode /etc/portage/package.mask:>=dev-haskell/conduit-1.0.10 Without these masks, conflicting versions of e.g. dev-haskell/text were required. To my naive view, that smells of missing slots. Judging from dev-haskell/text: # eix dev-haskell/text [I] dev-haskell/text Available versions: 0.11.3.1(0/0.11.3.1){tbz2} [m]1.1.1.3(0/1.1.1.3)^t{tbz2} [m]~1.2.1.3(0/1.2.1.3) {developer doc hscolour profile test} Installed versions: 0.11.3.1{tbz2}(00:21:34 07/09/15)(doc -developer -hscolour -profile -test) (note the [m]asked by me versions, those should go in a SLOT=1). The directory structure seems to support parallel installs: /usr/lib64/text-0.11.3.1/ghc-7.6.3/Data/Text.hi /usr/lib64/text-0.11.3.1/ghc-7.6.3/libHStext-0.11.3.1.a so adding proper slots should be easy, but I'm not sure. Can anyone reproduce this problem? I did not have _any_ haskell package installed so far. Should I open a bug? Or just wait a couple of days, sync, and try again without the masks?
