Compatibility with newest dependencies

[ysangkok]

repline was removed from Stackage Nightly because of the following

   - repline < 0 # tried repline-0.4.2.0, but its *library* requires containers >=0.5 && < 0.7 and the snapshot contains containers-0.7

Since it is a dependency of Dhall, it would be useful to many people to get a patch that enables compat with newer boot libraries.

Do you want a patch for this? I can send one.

I have added bumping support to Renovate which should help with bounds bumping: https://github.com/haskell-actions/setup/blob/main/docs/examples.md#dependency-updates

@sdiehl If you are unwilling to continue maintaining this package, would you be able to transfer Hackage package ownership to me? My Hackage user is janus

@adamwespiser I see you're a maintainer of this package on Hackage. Are you still interested in maintaining this, or would you be able to pass on maintainership to me?

I just pushed the updated version to hackage, sorry for the delay. 4.3.0 should be available: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/repline-0.4.3.0

This repo does unfortunately need some work. Unfortunately the CI/CD scripts have drifted, so there's considerably less guarantees on compatibility across language versions.

Thanks for the release. I am not sure what the issue with the CI/CD configuration is, it doesn't even seem to have attempted the run. If you like, I can submit a PR to fix the CI suite.
