Mark erroneous version as deprecated.

[DrewFenwick]

In the latest version on Hackage, the version number jumped from 0.9.0.2.1 to 8.10.7 I'm guessing this was supposed to be a version 0.8.10.7 or 0.8.10.7.1

I assume that version has already been re-published with the proper version number, but the fact that this erroneous version is still on hackage makes reading cabal build plan failure output confusing! Cabal will try to use 8.10.7 first as it's the newest version, and it took me a while to see why 8.10.7 didn't satisfy liquid-fixpoint>=0.8.10.2.1 && <0.9

Additionally if someone doesn't put a bound on their liquid-fixpoint dependency, Cabal will select 8.10.7 over 0.9.0.2.1, which I assume would be undesirable (though I assume in most cases you'd have to pin the version to your compiler version to even get it to build).

If 8.10.7 is marked as a deprecated version on Hackage then Cabal will stop trying to use it in build plans, which solves both of these problems.

Thanks for the report!

I've have marked 8.10.7 as deprecated in hackage.

Note that trying to build from hackage will likely fail builds or tests because the packages liquid-base, liquid-prelude, etc, haven't been updated yet to match 0.9.0.2.1. @nikivazou would you be doing these releases?

[nikivazou]

Yes, I can do it tomorrow. I tried to make you a maintainer too but I do not have the permission. @adinapoli can you please give me access to be able to add maintainers (or add @facundominguez) ?

[adinapoli]

@nikivazou You should already be maintainer at least for liquid-base, liquid-prelude and liquid-containers:

• https://hackage.haskell.org/package/liquid-base/maintainers/
• https://hackage.haskell.org/package/liquid-prelude/maintainers/
• https://hackage.haskell.org/package/liquid-containers/maintainers/

Are you still using that Hackage account or a different one?

[nikivazou]

I am a maintainer, but when I tried to edit the maintainers I got

Can't edit permissions for user group

So, I assume being a maintainer and be able to edit the maintainers is a different set of permissions?

[adinapoli]

Sanity check: I can see you also have a niki account on Hackage:

https://hackage.haskell.org/user/niki

Any chance the browser's session is keeping you logged in with niki, preventing you from editing stuff?

I can certainly add Facundo as a maintainer of all the liquid-* packages, just curious on why Hackage is giving you that error 🤔

[nikivazou]

That was it :) Thanks!!! I am adding him!

[facundominguez]

Note that trying to build from hackage will likely fail builds or tests because the packages liquid-base, liquid-prelude, etc, haven't been updated yet to match 0.9.0.2.1.

I have uploaded new releases of liquid-* packages by now. :)
