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


== Mission ==
= Communication =
To encourage, grow and guide the packaging of Haskell projects in Fedora.
== Mailing lists ==
We have two mailing-lists:


== Communication ==
* {{fplist|haskell}} ([http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/haskell/ archives]) for general discussion
=== Mailing list ===
* {{fplist|haskell-devel}} ([http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/haskell-devel/ archives]) for bugzilla traffic.
We have a mailing-list [https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-haskell-list fedora-haskell-list]  ([http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-haskell-list/ archives] ), since 13 Feb 2008.


=== IRC ===
== IRC ==
Currently we do not have an independent [[Communicate/IRCHowTo| IRC]]  channel.
We have an {{fpchat|#fedora-haskell}} channel on freenode.net .
Some members may be found on #fedora-devel or #haskell on Freenode.


== Updates ==
Follow us on [http://twitter.com/fedorahaskell Twitter].


== Tasks ==
= Haskell Platform support =
* Complete and submit the current [[PackagingDrafts/Haskell| revised draft packaging guidelines]] for haddock documentation handling, etc
* F20 has haskell-platform-2013.2.0.0 with ghc-7.6.3
* Submit various commonly used libraries for Package Review
* F19 has haskell-platform-2012.4.0.0 with ghc-7.4.2
* srpm packages for DrIFT, X11, c2hs, cpphs, fps, hs-plugins, hscolour, hsh, hslogger, missingh, vty, wxhaskell, xmobar, xmonad at [http://haskell.org/fedora/not-fedora-submitted/ unsubmitted srpm packages] are some good starting candidates
* EPEL7 Beta has ghc-7.6.3
* update Bryan's [http://darcs.serpentine.com/cabal-rpm/ cabal-rpm] to generate .spec that follow our Packaging Guidelines
* EPEL6 has haskell-platform-2011.4.0.0 and ghc-7.0.4
* bootstrap ghc on ppc64 ([https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=239713 bug 239713] ) and ia64
* EPEL5 has ghc-7.0.4
* build ghc for EPEL


== Packaging ==
Please see the [[Haskell_Platform|Haskell Platform]] page for more information about Fedora's Haskell Platform support.
We have the [[Packaging/Haskell| Haskell Packaging Guidelines]] in place with template .spec files for libraries and programs.  Please use them when submitting Haskell packages for review. There is a script <code>cabal2spec</code> included in the Fedora ghc package which generates initial compliant .spec files from cabal packages.
Detailed package information can be found on the [https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/haskell-platform Fedora Packages] page.


=== Package Reviews ===

* ghc-xmonad-contrib ([https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=426754 bug 426754] )
* New packages (not starting with <code>ghc-*</code>) need to be added to [[Upstream_release_monitoring]]. (Note that packages in haskell-platform are intentionally not listed to avoid accidental breakage.)

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.  - YaakovNemoy

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:

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

Package reviews

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

Other links:

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
