Haskell Special Interest Group
Mission
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.
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.
