New release #196

Closed athas closed 2 years ago

athas commented 2 years ago

Could we get a new release on Hackage please? Commits such as 0eec6193df0a36b94709e3d4751648023edd262e are needed for Alex to work on GHC HEAD.

Unfortunately we cannot just use source-repository-package in our cabal.project to include this repository, because of the manual bootstrapping shenanigans that are needed to prepare an sdist for Alex.

Can you try out https://hackage.haskell.org/package/alex-3.2.7/candidate/ and let me know how it goes?

athas commented 2 years ago

I can build that one with GHC HEAD. I can also build it with GHC 8.10.7, so it's probably good!

Thanks!
