Subject: [PATCH 0/6] Fix Haskell packages incompatible with latest LTSHaskell
 release.
Date: Wed, 25 Nov 2020 12:10:32 -0800
Guix,

My recent contribution, pushed to master as e6bfb02eb79777b760031384d4a3c14239f7fb55 (bug#44174), introduced some haskell packages that are newer than the latest LTSHaskell release supported by Guix, as pointed out by Ricardo Wurmus. This patch series fixes that, representing a downgrade of several of the packages to versions matching the latest LTSHaskell release, as well as one package addition.

Carlo Holl (6):
  gnu: ghc-tabular: Downgrade to 0.2.2.7.
  gnu: ghc-doctest: Downgrade to 0.16.2.
  gnu: Add ghc-easytest.
  gnu: ghc-hledger-lib: Downgrade to 0.14.1.
  gnu: hledger: Downgrade to 1.14.2.
  gnu: ghc-cassava-megaparsec: Downgrade to 2.0.1.

+-- tests whose scopes are prefixed by \"addition\"

+
+Randomness seed for this run is 5104092164859451056

+------------------------------------------------------------
+OK addition.ex1
+OK addition.ex2
+OK addition.ex3
+------------------------------------------------------------
+3 tests passed, no failures!

+
+The idea here is to write tests with ordinary Haskell code, with
+control flow explicit and under programmer control.")

This patch series fixes that, representing a downgrade of several of the packages to versions matching the latest LTSHaskell release, as well as one package addition.

Thank you for following up! Pushed as

For ghc-easytest, I removed so-called "marketing language" from the
synopsis and description [0], and also removed the usage example from
the description. It's nice to have examples but they belong in the
package's documentation rather than the Guix package description.

[0] The manual section Synopses and Descriptions talks about how to
handle the "marketing language":

I'm afraid I'm guilty of just doing the minimal work to format the text. I'll pay more attention to this next time.

Anyways, thanks for pushing.

Okay, don't worry about it too much! That's what review is for :)
