Library Only Template
This is a sample spec file for a Haskell Cabal package. This sample demonstrates how to package a Haskell Cabal package that is only a library. It was generated automatically using cabal-rpm. It contains a few minor bugs, including missing dependency declarations. This is due to a limitation in cabal-rpm that needs to be fixed.
Consequently, it's been edited. The changes can be seen in the changelog below.
