 description:
-    A fast parser combinator library, aimed particularly at dealing
-    efficiently with network protocols and complicated text/binary
-    file formats.
-    .
-    This library is basically a translation of the original
-    attoparsec library to use text instead of bytestrings.
-    .
-    Changes in version 0.8.5.0:
-    .
-    * Ported changes from attoparsec 0.8.5.0.
-    .
-    Changes in version 0.8.2.1:
-    .
-    * Permit newer version of containers for GHC 7.0.
-    .
-    Changes in version 0.8.2.0:
-    .
-    * Add @IsString@ instance to @Parser@.
-    .
-    * Add specializations of @\<*@ and @*\>@, see the docs for
-      more information.
-    .
-    * Add @digit@, @letter@, @space@, @decimal@, @hexadecimal@,
-      @signed@, @double@ and @rational@.
+    This package has been deprecated.  Now the @attoparsec@
+    includes all functionality from this library.
