autopatch for hackage revisions #30

Closed juhp closed 8 years ago

juhp commented 8 years ago

Sometimes a newer revision of a .cabal is available on Hackage, it would be better for cabal-rpm to include such revision updates automatically as a patch. eg to build current mtl-2.2.1 for ghc8.

or automatic use of "cabal-tweak-dep-ver" script in %setup section ?

Good idea - though that requires more parsing.
