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 Frenode.
Tasks
- Complete and submit the revised draft packaging guidelines to FPC
- Submit more, commonly used libraries for Package Review
- Build ghc for EPEL
- update Bryan's cabal-rpm to generate .spec that follow our Packaging Guidelines
- There are some of old srpms for DrIFT, c2hs, fps, hs-plugins, hscolour, hsh, hslogger, missingh, vty, wxhaskell, xmobar at unsubmitted srpm packages that could be updated
- 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. There is a script cabal2spec included in the Fedora ghc package which generates .spec files from cabal packages with the packaging templates.
