Description
As an aside, building with Stack is now problematic because a number of packages were dropped after
nightly-2024-12-09. I first noticed this withhlint, butdiscriminationwas also dropped, which is relevant toproto-lens. Given that Stack is geared towards reproducible builds with fixed versions, it is going to be awkward to continue having the continuous build matrix based on Stack; would there be any opposition to switching the matrix to be for Cabal and use a single fixed snapshot with Stack?
