hledger 1.3 is not in stackage or lts-9

[simonmichael]

See commercialhaskell/stackage#2628 . Secondly, we need some better process for ensuring the hledger packages in stackage are as fresh as possible.

[simonmichael]

hledger-1.3 has landed in stackage nightly.

ui, web and api are currently blocked (-> hledger) for reasons I don't understand:

    # - hledger-ui # bounds: brick
    # - hledger-web # GHC 8.2.1 via yesod-form
    # - hledger-api # GHC 8.2.1

@simonmichael we are taking hledger out of nightly again because it has been blocking megaparsec-6 for 4 weeks and we are getting complaints: commercialhaskell/stackage#2666 (comment)

Can you get it to work with megaparsec-6? It would be great to get all of the hledger packages back into nightly RSN!

[simonmichael]

Amending what I said on the other issue: it was too much work for today, I will finish and release asap.

[simonmichael]

@cdornan: hledger-* 1.3.1 supporting megaparsec 6 has been released, I will follow any suggested next steps.

All resolved, except for the third-party hledger-* packages which will probably be resolved soon. Much better.

Process changes to help keep our stackage presence fresh:

• keep our default stack.yaml using the same GHC version as stackage nightly whenever practical
• periodically run the new thorough make stackagetest rule, which builds/tests/benchmarks all main packages with stackage resolvers for the last three GHC versions
