I use the haskle overlay, quickcheck-2.10 is not in Gentoo yet. The ebuild in Gentoo looks like it would behave the same way though.

Looking closer at this, it appears that the quickcheck deps in aeson ebuild are lacking a :2 slot operator.

[Comment 2 Sergei Trofimovich (RETIRED) 2017-11-05 19:56:05 UTC]

Yeah, hackport needs a fix to pink quickcheck to proper slot.
