Mission

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

Communication

Mailing list

We have a mailing-list haskell-devel (archives), since Feb 2008.

IRC

We have an IRC channel #fedora-haskell on Freenode.

Haskell Platform support

Haskell Platform in Fedora status:

F11 supports haskell-platform-2009.2.0.1
F12 supports haskell-platform-2009.2.0.2

There is release of haskell-platform yet for ghc-6.12.1 (see current darcs haskell-platform.cabal for version clues).

Tasks

for haskell-platform for ghc-6.12 we still need new packages reviewed for:
- stm, haskell-src, parallel, QuickCheck, regex-compat, regex-posix
move bugzilla to a separate mailing-list
build ghc for EPEL
have a SIG meeting on IRC
port arch2cabal features to cabal2spec
yum or packagekit extension for cabal-install
keep cabal2spec/haskell in sync with latest macros
Haskell_Spin submitted to Spins SIG
autogeneration of packages for a "testing" repository of all-of-hackage. Pull from this (with a human eye) to make Fedora packages.

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.
