Relax bounds, add conditional dependency on fail #347

The build fails because it's using unreleased active-0.3. I don't know what to do here

    complete rewrite of active library

    This version is, I hope, much easier to use and much more
    fundamentally, semantically sound than the previous version.

is for active-0.3 which is unreleased. And indeed changes the API so much, that it's not a straightforward Data.Active -> Active module name change.

Is there way to make CI not use active master branch?

byorgey commented 5 years ago

Indeed, active master is a complete rewrite. At the time that I pulled the trigger and put that on master, I was planning to port diagrams-lib over at the same time, but the process got snagged on something and now we are in this unfortunate state. I don't remember if there is a way to tell CI for diagrams-lib which branch of active to use, let me look into it.

Thanks! I'm going to merge this anyway, and will look into getting CI to build as a separate issue.

By the way, the issue with CI was that we have a HEAD_DEPS variable that specifies which dependencies should be fetched from github rather than Hackage, to facilitate CI when we make breaking changes to several packages in concert. active was in the list, but clearly shouldn't be right now.
