Revision as of 17:28, 12 August 2009

Mission

The mission of the Haskell Special Interest Group is to encourage, grow and guide the packaging of Haskell projects in Fedora.

Communication

Mailing list

We have a mailing-list fedora-haskell-list (archives ), since 13 Feb 2008.

IRC

We have an IRC channel #fedora-haskell on Freenode.

Haskell Platform support

We support most of the Haskell Platform project, although we do not yet have an all-inclusive umbrella package that pulls in every Haskell package required by the Platform specification.

Currently missing packages:

  • GLUT
  • HUnit
  • fgl

Installing the Haskell Platform

Here's how you can install the Platform from the command line:

sudo yum -y install \
  alex \
  cabal-install \
  ghc-doc \
  ghc-HTTP-doc \
  ghc-HTTP-prof \
  ghc-editline-doc \
  ghc-editline-prof \
  ghc-zlib-doc \
  ghc-zlib-prof \
  happy

Tasks

  • package haskell-platform
  • build ghc for EPEL
  • have a SIG meeting on irc
  • move bugzilla to a separate mailing-list?
  • pkgkit extension for cabal-install
  • push cabal2spec/haskell to hackage
  • Haskell_Spin submitted to Spins SIG
  • autogeneration of packages for a "testing" repository of autogenerated all-of-hackage. Pull from this (with a human eye) to make Fedora packages.
  • Bootstrap ghc on ppc64 (bug 239713 ) and ia64

Packaging

We have the Haskell Packaging Guidelines in place with template .spec files for libraries and programs. Please use them when submitting Haskell packages for review. cabal2spec generates .spec files from cabal packages using up to date templates. After a package has been accepted please remember to include haskell-sig in the CVS Admin Request.

Package reviews

Open Package reviews which are CC fedora-haskell-list.

They include:

Closed Package reviews which are CC fedora-haskell-list.

Other potential packages

pandoc (requires zip-archive), emacs-haskell

Bugs

Open Haskell bugs

Current packages in Fedora

Haskell SIG packages in pkgdb

Programs

  • alex, cabal2spec, cabal-install, cpphs, curry, darcs, ghc, haddock (haddock09 needed for ghc-6.8), happy, hscolour, hugs98, xmonad

Libraries

  • ghc-ghc-paths (formerly ghc-paths), ghc-gtk2hs (formerly gtk2hs), ghc-haskell-src-exts, ghc-HTTP, ghc-uniplate, ghc-utf8-string, ghc-X11, ghc-zlib

Comments

I've drafted up a feature request - Yaakov Nemoy
