👋 we had a few hiccups with the HSpec/Hspec change that caused some quick version churn between these two packages. This was fixed in freckle-app-1.0.2.2, which works with hspec-junit-formatter newer than 1.0.3.0.

[snoyberg]

Thanks!

Just noticed that due to commercialhaskell/stackage#6273, this doesn't resolve the issue for Stackage.

[pbrisbin]

Sorry, I sometimes have trouble understanding the relation between various Stackage issues. What is the reason that issue being open means this one must also be open?

[snoyberg]

Since ekg isn't is Stackage, we can't include the newer version of freckle-app, which depends on it. And the older version is incompatible with hspec-junit-formatter-1.1.0.0

[pbrisbin]

I see. But this only blocks us being in lts-19.x right? lts-18 won't be allowed off hspec-junit-formatter-1.0.x so everything will stay in that line?

[snoyberg]

Yes, that's true.

[pbrisbin]

My understanding of the current state of things:

• The build failure in this Issue was addressed
• freckle-app (and hspec-junit-formatter < 1.1) are in lts-18.x
• freckle-app cannot be in lts-19.x because ekg has dropped out
• ekg just needs a new release, but maintainers have gone silent, see here
• freckle-app is now (also?) disabled because of aeson-2.0

Therefore, I think this Issue need not be open. If anything, we should have an Issue about aeson-2.0.
