Mission

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

Communication

Mailing lists

We have two mailing-lists:

haskell (archives) for general discussion
haskell-devel (archives) for bugzilla traffic.

IRC

We have an #fedora-haskell^[?] channel on freenode.net .

Updates

Follow us on Twitter.

GHC and Stackage LTS versions

F30 has ghc-8.4.4 and package versions based on Stackage LTS 12
F29 has ghc-8.2.2 and package versions based on Stackage LTS 11
F28 has ghc-8.2.2 and package versions based on Stackage LTS 10
EPEL7 has ghc-7.6.3 and haskell-platform-2013.2.0.0
EPEL6 has ghc-7.0.4 and haskell-platform-2011.4.0.0
EPEL5 has ghc-7.0.4

Haskell Coprs

If you're looking for newer versions of ghc etc you can try the following coprs:

(*) if you have Fedora Haskell libraries installed which are not part of ghc, you will need to remove them all first (easiest just to remove ghc-base) to avoid package dependency conflicts

Tasks

Changes/Haskell_Stackage_LTS_11 for F29
help improve FedoraReview/plugins/haskell.py
docsbeat
document ghc rebase process GHC_Update_SOP
package subset of LTS in Copr

Packaging

New Package Process

Please use cabal-rpm to generate packages for submitting a package review request.
- It should follow the current Haskell Packaging Guidelines.
- Please add haskell-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org to the CC list for your review request bug.
You can use cabal-rpm diff when reviewing packages to check differences from the templates.
New packages need to be added to https://release-monitoring.org/ to track Stackage (or Hackage if not in Stackage).

Package reviews

"ghc" or "haskell" package reviews

Bugs

Non-review bugs can be split into:

(We use Upstream_Release_Monitoring to alert and track upstream package updates.)

All open URM bugs (saved as haskell-available)
- Untriaged URM bugs (saved as haskell-available:untriaged)
- Triaged no missing deps (saved as haskell-available:ok)
- Triaged missing deps (saved as haskell-available:deps)
Package bugs
Tracker for libraries with no revdeps
ghc bugs not CC haskell-sig
