Spec URL: http://benboeckel.net/packaging/ghc-mtl-compat/ghc-mtl-compat.spec SRPM URL: http://benboeckel.net/packaging/ghc-mtl-compat/ghc-mtl-compat-0.2.1.3-1.fc24.src.rpm Description: This package backports the "Control.Monad.Except" module from 'mtl' (if using 'mtl-2.2.0.1' or earlier), which reexports the 'ExceptT' monad transformer and the 'MonadError' class. This package should only be used if there is a need to use the 'Control.Monad.Except' module specifically. If you just want the 'mtl' class instances for 'ExceptT', use 'transformers-compat' instead, since 'mtl-compat' does nothing but reexport the instances from that package. Note that unlike how 'mtl-2.2' or later works, the "Control.Monad.Except" module defined in this package exports all of 'ExceptT''s monad class instances. Therefore, you may have to declare 'import Control.Monad.Except ()' at the top of your file to get all of the 'ExceptT' instances in scope. Fedora Account System Username: mathstuf
No objections - just wonder if it can be patched around for now to save a review?

This seems to be a dummy (meta) package for ghc-7.10... so I don't think we need it.
eg it does not rpmbuild: Empty %files file /builddir/build/BUILD/mtl-compat-0.2.1.3/ghc-mtl-compat.files
This version is too new for F24: Setup: At least the following dependencies are missing: mtl >=2.2.1 && <2.3 (slightly amusing)
Closing this based on preceding comments.
