Upload latest version to Hackage

[benjamin-hodgson]

The version of bound on Hackage, 1.0.7, supports only transformers<0.5. This is causing me trouble when installing bound with a fresh install of the latest Haskell Platform, which comes with transformers-0.5.2.0.

I see from the Cabal file in this repo that the dependency has already been updated - could you please upload the latest version to Hackage?

Thanks!

Bump

The binary < 0.8 bound is problematic too, as this stackoverflow user experienced.

If there is any work to be done before a new version can be released, please point that out, so others can pick up the slack! :)

Have to go thru all examples & haddocks and check that they are up to date. Will do today.

I'm not aware if there is some (possibly private) downstream issues @ekmett want to be sorted out first.

[phadej]

I went thru examples and haddocks, there shouldn't be any Prelude.Extras mentions (grep agrees).

AFAICS there isn't anything blocking the release, is there?

EDIT: free have to support Data.Functor.Classes too. I guess this is blocked by that, ekmett/free#126

Is this what's stopping bound from being on Stackage LTS?

Yes, although there are quite a few dependencies that need bumping by now.

@ekmett: Please consider getting a co-maintainer for this package. I'm sure there'll be some volunteers. (I don't know this package well enough though.)

Also, are there significant/breaking changes in 2.0? See discussion on 5498605. If so, I propose a maintenance branch for 1.x (1.8, with the fixes in the commit) so that users won't have to deal with breaking changes just to get a build for recent versions/LTSs.

2.0 is fine on GHC 7.10.x stack LTS builds with transformers-compat-0.5.1.4 in extra-deps. You do need to implement Eq1/Show1 instances but these are really trivial (eq1 = (==), showsPrec1 == showsPrec1). Cannot comment about GHC 8 builds but my tests are passing etc.

So at least for me master is working, and can be released. Thanks

The eq1 etc stuff works differently in 8.0 land, so there's no real way to side step that.

At long last, bound-2 has been uploaded to Hackage.
