Version conflict on update of Haskell packages

Hello all,

Like the subject says, when updating, I got this:

warning: haskell-http: local (4000.2.5-1) is newer than testing (4000.2.4-1)
warning: haskell-parsec: local (3.1.3-3) is newer than testing (3.1.3-1)
warning: haskell-random: local (1.0.1.1-7) is newer than testing (1.0.1.1-3)

I was (and am) using the [haskell] repo, but not the [haskell-extra] one. I added it, and tried to update, but it made no difference. To make matters even weirder, the error messages are about needing version 7.4.2-1 of ghc, but that IS the version I have installed!

Btw, despite running testing, I don't need the [haskell-testing] repo enabled... right? (currently it is not so)

EDIT: adding [haskell-testing] did not solve the problem...

Re: Version conflict on update of Haskell packages

Like any other library update, AUR packages require your attention.

Is [haskell] an official arch repo?

To make matters even weirder, the error messages are about needing version 7.4.2-1 of ghc, but that IS the version I have installed!

That error says you can't update package foo, because it needs a specific version of package bar and you are about to update bar.
ghc got updated from version 7.4.2-1 in [extra] to 7.6.1-1 in [testing] and [haskell] still has version 7.4.2-1 at the moment.

Haskell packages in the official repos have just been updated, so wait a bit until your server gets them or switch to a more up-to-date one.
As you can see, the packages from [testing] depend on 7.6.1-1 http://www.archlinux.org/packages/testi … skell-mtl/

Edit: [haskell-testing] has the updated packages

Repository     : haskell-testing
Name           : haskell-base64-bytestring
...
Depends On     : ghc=7.6.1-1

Thanks karol.

Moving to AUR Issues, for want of a better place. OP, you may want to specify a better title.

Re: Version conflict on update of Haskell packages

So, from what I understand, given that haskell packages in the official repos have just been updated, I now have to wait until the packages in the unsupported arch-haskell repo get rebuilt, right? (or do that myself, locally)

EDIT: improved the title, thanks for the suggestion, ngoonee

Thanks. Although it was meant as a homework-assignment for the OP ;-)

guilty as charged sorry about that.
