    I believe the Hackage.nix library [1] has a solution to this problem, specifically for Haskell packages.

    The `text` package [2] has many major, minor, and fix versions. Many of these versions are still required by projects. However, the current Nix Packages only has one version [3], and maybe a second version under a different name.

    Hackage.nix will provide any version of `text` published on Hackage.

    One downside is that `text` is not pulled from Nix Packages. The project's specific version of `text` must be cached elsewhere, or built from source. So it is slower.
