Allow megaparsec 9.6

[wolfgangwalther]

I'm currently trying to build PostgREST with GHC 9.8.1 - this is the last dependency remaining to make this work, I think.

[wolfgangwalther]

@robx How would I make a release to hackage after I merge? This is not automated, is it? Would you do that manually?

[steve-chavez]

@wolfgangwalther I can make the hackage release (Robert added me as maintainer). I'll do it manually after you merge, though ideally we automate this.

[wolfgangwalther]

Yeah, agreed. Should probably be easier to test your suggestions in PostgREST/postgrest#2275 (comment) here than in the main repo.

[wolfgangwalther]

For now, I merged - feel free to either manually release or try one of the actions.

[steve-chavez]

@wolfgangwalther @laurenceisla Do you guys have an account on Hackage? I can add you as maintainer.

[laurenceisla]

@steve-chavez I requested an account creation. I guess, it'll take a bit to receive a confirmation since it seems to be a manual process.

[wolfgangwalther]

@steve-chavez @laurenceisla bump. Can one of you do a hackage release?

[wolfgangwalther]

In fact, it would be enough to make a new revision only.

[laurenceisla]

@wolfgangwalther I made the new revision: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/configurator-pg-0.2.9/revisions/

But it didn't let me remove the unused 'bytestring' dependency for tests, so I left it there.

hackage Cannot remove existing library dependency on 'bytestring' in test suite 'tests' component

If removing it is needed then I'll make a new release instead.

[wolfgangwalther]

Ah, interesting. Yes, the bytestring dependency must either be bumped higher or be removed. Otherwise the build with GHC 9.8.1 will fail. So yes, a new release would be the best option, then.

Thanks!

[wolfgangwalther]

Hm. It seems to have worked with the revision, too..

[wolfgangwalther]

Ah, of course - because we don't run the tests there. But we still need a new version, so that this can make it into nixpkgs eventually when we want to build with GHC 9.8.1 via nix. So yeah a new release would be best.

I got permission to upload to hackage at last. I modified the relevant files in #24 and uploaded a candidate https://hackage.haskell.org/package/configurator-pg-0.2.10/candidate in the meantime.

Edit: Already published to https://hackage.haskell.org/package/configurator-pg-0.2.10
