+### Please describe the problem.
+
+Module `System.PosixCompat.User` has been removed in `unix-compat-0.7` (see
+[changelog](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/unix-compat-0.7/changelog)). As
+a result, git-annex failed to build, with the following error:
+
+```
+Starting     git-annex-10.20230329 (all, legacy fallback)
+Error: cabal: Failed to build git-annex-10.20230329. The failure occurred
+during the configure step. The exception was:

+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+```
+cabal v2-update
+cabal v2-install --jobs=8 --max-backjumps=100000 --install-method=copy --installdir=/opt/homebrew/Cellar/git-annex/10.20230329/bin --flags=+S3

+(Note: I omitted some workarounds used to build with GHC >= 9.2. The full
+package description for building git-annex can be found
+[here](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/83f9beeb6ce6d44cd06856f4e9fc513e80cd237d/Formula/git-annex.rb).)
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+git-annex: 10.20230329 (But it failed with 10.20230321, too.)
+
+OS: macOS 11, 12, 13 (x86_64 and arm64), Ubuntu 22.04 (x86_64)
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
+
+The error was observed while packaging git-annex for Homebrew
+[here](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/127002). Currently, that's
+being worked around by restricting `unix-compat` version to `>= 0.5 && < 0.7` in
+`git-annex.cabal`.
+
+### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
+
+Sorry, I'm not a git-annex user. I'm a maintainer of the Homebrew package
+manager, and I help to make the newest git-annex available to our users.
+
+Thanks for all your work maintaining git-annex!
