Dependencies problem

When running "yaourt -Syu" I get the following output:

:: Synchronizing package databases...

When running pacman -Syu --debug, it reports the dependency problem after checking the dependencies for xmobar:

...
debug: checkdeps: package xmobar-0.12-3
debug: checkdeps: transaction would break 'haskell-array=0.3.0.1' dependency of 'haskell-cairo'
debug: checkdeps: transaction would break 'haskell-bytestring=0.9.1.7' dependency of 'haskell-cairo'
...

What should I do?

Thanks, kradle

There's a load of issues with the Xmonad/Haskell dependencies at the moment. I've a boat load of problems too.

Unfortunately I'm not clever enough to sort it out, so I'm going to wait for the Haskell packages to get updated as well so they're not dependent on old stuff...

Would appear to suggest a way forwards, if not an answer...

It's really not that hard.

Uninstall the haskell packages you got from aur, -Syu, _update_ and rebuild the haskell packages you got from aur.

Take special notice of the "_update_" part. Sadly many of the haskell packages in aur are outdated, and therefor won't work with ghc 7, but most of them have been updated upstream, so check hackage and bump the versions as needed.
