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

F22 and F23 have ghc-7.8.4 and patched haskell-platform-2014.2.0.0
F20 and F21 have ghc-7.6.3 and haskell-platform-2013.2.0.0
EPEL7 has ghc-7.6.3 and haskell-platform-2013.2.0.0
EPEL6 has ghc-7.0.4 and haskell-platform-2011.4.0.0
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.

Haskell Coprs

If you're looking for newer versions of ghc etc you can try the following coprs:

https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/petersen/ghc-7.10.2/ (*)
https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/petersen/stack/
https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/petersen/ghc-7.8.4/ (*)
https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/petersen/pandoc/ (also pandoc-el5)
https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/petersen/idris/
https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/petersen/cabal-install/ (note the above ghc repos already include cabal-install)
https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/mathstuf/git-annex/

(*) require removing Fedora ghc-*-devel to install

Tasks

Changes/GHC_7.10 for F24
help improve FedoraReview/plugins/haskell.py
Changes/YesodWebFramework
docsbeat
update GHC_Update_SOP when bootstrapping ghc-7.8
Haskell containers
package test packages (hspec, etc)
repoquery wrapper for (reverse-)dependencies
cabal-rpm: version sensitivity
automate rebuilds in koji or mock-build (see rebuild scripts in fedora-haskell-tools.git)
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.

Package reviews

We track package review requests that are CC haskell-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org:

Open haskell-devel package reviews which are split into

New unassigned reviews (bit.ly/fedora-haskell-new-reviews2)
Ongoing assigned reviews
- Assigned reviews
- Approved open reviews (fedora-review+)
NotReady stalled reviews

Bugs

Non-review bugs can be split into:

(We use Upstream_Release_Monitoring to alert and track upstream package updates.)

All open URM bugs (saved as haskell-available)
- Untriaged URM bugs (saved as haskell-available:untriaged)
- Triaged OK to upgrade (saved as haskell-available:ok)
- Triaged Not Good to upgrade (saved as haskell-available:NG)
- Haskell Platform packages (saved as haskell-available:HP)
Package bugs
Tracker for libraries with no revdeps
ghc bugs not CC haskell-sig

All open Haskell bugs

See also the package review links in the Packaging section.
