Mission

The mission of the Haskell Special Interest Group is to maintain, 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:

  • F14 Beta supports haskell-platform-2010.2.0.0 (ghc-6.12.3)
  • F13 supports haskell-platform-2010.1.0.0 (ghc-6.12.1)
  • F12 supports haskell-platform-2009.2.0.2 (ghc-6.10.4)
  • F11 supported haskell-platform-2009.2.0.1 (ghc-6.10.3)
  • EPEL 6 Beta has ghc-6.12.3
  • EPEL 5 testing has ghc-6.10.4

Tasks

  • update PackagingDrafts/Haskell to latest macros/packaging
  • add requires/provides rpm scripts for package hashs
  • F14 docsbeat
  • bootstrap ghc for EPEL 4
  • new mailing-list discussion separate to bugzilla mails
  • move cabal2spec package to haskell branch
    • port cabal2arch features to cabal2spec
  • cabal/yum integration (cabal-autopkg)
    • autogeneration of packages for a "testing" repository of all-of-hackage. Pull from this (with a human eye) to make Fedora packages.
  • Haskell_Spin submitted to Spins SIG

Packaging

Please use the latest cabal2spec package from rawhide or koji when submitting packages.

The current Haskell Packaging Guidelines need updating to ghc-6.12. 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 package SCM admin request.

Package reviews

You can use cabal2spec-diff when reviewing packages to check differences from the templates.

Package reviews tracker
