 Attached.

 Let's get this one out, then I'll post another batch to fix a bunch of
 deprecation errors left.

 > once I can merge the changes, we can release a new version, and try it
 out on our server. can everything be installed via apt-get?  We can't do
 cabal on production machines, only apt-get. If it's not in a debian repo,
 we cannot install it.

 Cabal is haskell's build infrastructure; you use it to compile regardless
 of whether you invoke the `cabal` binary or the `Setup.hs` scriptlet.

 re: debian repo:

 I added some additional code to cope with relatively old libraries in
 wheezy (so it builds exactly with libghc-XXX-dev libraries installed with
 apt), but it will break the build the next time libraries are revbumped.

 Cabal can also fetch and compile all the needed haskell dependencies for a
 project. What's your take on having build-time deps that are ''not'' in
 debian repos, but are fully automatically fulfilled by the build system to
 produce a debian-packagable and deployable binary?
