Revision as of 04:56, 30 March 2014

Mission

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

Communication

Mailing lists

We have two mailing-lists:

haskell (archives) for general discussion
haskell-devel (archives) for bugzilla traffic.

IRC

We have an #fedora-haskell^[?] channel on freenode.net .

Updates

Follow us on Twitter.

Haskell Platform support

F20 has haskell-platform-2013.2.0.0 with ghc-7.6.3
F19 has haskell-platform-2012.4.0.0 with ghc-7.4.2
EPEL7 Beta has ghc-7.6.3
EPEL6 has haskell-platform-2011.4.0.0 and ghc-7.0.4
EPEL5 has ghc-7.0.4

Please see the Haskell Platform page for more information about Fedora's Haskell Platform support. Detailed package information can be found on the Fedora Packages page.

Tasks

Changes/GHC_7.8
help improve FedoraReview/plugins/haskell.py
Changes/YesodWebFramework
docsbeat
update GHC_Update_SOP when bootstrapping ghc-7.8
submit Haskell_Spin to Spins SIG?
package test packages (hspec, etc)
repoquery wrapper for (reverse-)dependencies
cabal-rpm: recursive support
automate rebuilds in koji or mock-build (see rebuild scripts in haskell-sig.git)
Add %check sections for packages that have tests available
Better tool to check for dependency breakage for version updates: packdeps reverse and cblrepo exist
Automatically updated package dependency graphs.
Continuous build integration to automate build testing (see upstream stackage project)
Koji supports maven now. It could have support for cabal as well.

Packaging

New Package Process

Please use cabal-rpm (which replaced cabal2spec) to generate packages for submitting a package review request.
- It should follow the current Haskell Packaging Guidelines.
You can use cabal-rpm-diff when reviewing packages to check differences from the templates.
Please include haskell-sig in the InitialCC field of Package_SCM_admin_requests.
New packages (not starting with ghc-*) need to be added to Upstream_release_monitoring. (Note that packages in haskell-platform are intentionally not listed to avoid accidental breakage.)

Package reviews

Open haskell-devel package reviews can be split by Whiteboard into:

Bugs

Non-review bugs can be split into:

We use Upstream_Release_Monitoring to alert and track upstream package updates.

All open Haskell bugs

See also the package review links in the Packaging section.

Current packages in Fedora

Haskell SIG packages in pkgdb

See package interdependencies for dependency graphs.

+== Package reviews ==
-I'm tinkering with cabal-rpm to make sure it can create '''*good*''' Fedora packages for most cabal files. I'm using zlib as a test spec in the review process to get a feel for the little nuances that cabal-rpm has to work out.  I would really like to have a naming scheme decided on in some part.  Once that step is out of the way, I think I can try to make rpms for most of the packages, and put them in a repo somewhere as a demo - YaakovNemoy
