             Summary: Dependency on very old version of vector library
                 Key: THRIFT-4256
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4256
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Haskell - Library
            Reporter: Tom Lippincott
            Priority: Minor


Currently, Thrift.cabal has an exact dependency of vector==0.10.12.2, but this version is much, much older than what other packages depend on.  This makes it necessary to enable "allow-newer", which effectively ignores the dependency, and then breaks when a package is uploaded to hackage, and prevents inclusion of thrift in a stack curated package set.

If there's no particular reason for it (and I've been successfully compiling thrift with vector==0.12.0.2), could this dependency be set to a range, .e.g. >=0.12.0?  I could then enter a request for thrift to be added to stack's curated package sets.
