postgresql-libpq-configure-0.11-... failed during the configure step

[tomjaguarpaw]

Yesterday I uploaded opaleye-0.10.4.0. Two builds have been attempted, both failed, for example: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/opaleye-0.10.4.0/reports/1

The error is:

Error: cabal: Some packages failed to install:
opaleye-0.10.4.0-KQhmRh8kr3X1liiGgwrlzJ depends on opaleye-0.10.4.0 which
failed to install.
postgresql-libpq-0.11.0.0-GBaHc059NQJ9a4iGXqEfFK depends on
postgresql-libpq-0.11.0.0 which failed to install.
postgresql-libpq-configure-0.11-GQ0HQiY1Xe86n5ML0kWxUT failed during the
configure step. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1

Same problem for Squeal. Is there a way to update libpq on the Hackage server?

we're still using debian bullseye for the docbuilder, and the latest libpq-dev in that is still 13 series. i don't think there's an easy way to update libpq without causing package chaos on the docbuilder. seems unfortunate that the postgres version required by the underlying dependencies is set to be higher than necessary, but i don't see a great workaround from our end until we do a full upgrade/transfer of the docbuilder box. until then, docs for such packages will need to be uploaded manually.
