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

Currently we do not have an independent IRC channel. Some members may be found on #fedora-devel or #haskell on Freenode.

Tasks

Complete and submit the current revised draft packaging guidelines for haddock documentation handling, etc
Submit various commonly used libraries for Package Review
srpm packages for DrIFT, X11, c2hs, cpphs, fps, hs-plugins, hscolour, hsh, hslogger, missingh, vty, wxhaskell, xmobar, xmonad at unsubmitted srpm packages are some good starting candidates
update Bryan's cabal-rpm to generate .spec that follow our Packaging Guidelines
bootstrap ghc on ppc64 (bug 239713 ) and ia64
build ghc for EPEL

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 initial compliant .spec files from cabal packages.

Comments

cabal-rpm needs to be updated and patched to generate .spec files compliant with the package guidelines.

I've drafted up a feature request - Yaakov Nemoy
