Upper bounds prevent build with recent stackage nightly #139

Closed blitzcode closed 7 years ago

blitzcode commented 8 years ago

--  Failure when adding dependencies:
      data-default: needed (==0.5.*), 0.6.0 found (latest applicable is 0.5.3)
      template-haskell: needed (>=2.7.0 && <2.11), 2.11.0.0 found (latest applicable is 2.10.0.0)
needed for package threepenny-gui-0.6.0.6

It would be great if threepenny could be added to Stackage to discover these version conflicts automatically. It's literally the only package I use that's not on Stackage and hence the only one that causes build issues when changing snapshots.

I have bumped the dependencies.

Concerning compatibility with GHC 8.0.1, it appears that the Travis test fails because the snap package has not been updated yet.

Great! I also stumbled on some dependencies that don't build yet. There's quite a few things missing from the GHC8 Stackage nightlies, might take a while before everything is ported.

I have bumped the dependencies and uploaded a maintenance release, version 0.7.0.0, to hackage. Everything should work on GHC 8.0 now as well.
