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 IRC channel #fedora-haskell on Freenode.

Haskell Platform support

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

  • F18 currently has haskell-platform-2012.2.0.0 with ghc-7.4.1
  • F17 has haskell-platform-2011.4.0.0 with ghc-7.0.4
  • F16 has haskell-platform-2011.2.0.1 with ghc-7.0.4
  • EPEL6 has haskell-platform-2011.4.0.0 and ghc-7.0.4
  • EPEL5 has ghc-6.12.3

Tasks

  • PackagingDrafts/Haskell submission to FPC: https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/194
  • Features/GHC74 for F18
  • Haskell_Spin submit to Spins SIG
  • docsbeat
  • cabal-rpm: recursive and yum support
  • autogeneration of packages for a "testing" repository of all-of-hackage. Pull from this (with a human eye) to make Fedora packages.
  • support for automatic rebuilds. Try to do it in koji or mock-build with a shell script or haskell script.
  • 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.
  • Koji supports maven now. It could have support for cabal as well.
