There was a recent Arch-Haskell thread about dumping most of AUR Haskell packages: http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/arch-haskell/2011-November/001744.html As an end user, I effectively ignore the official Arch Haskell packages as they are so far out of date. I'm also now trying to disregard most of the AUR since I came across that thread. Haskell is starting to feel fragile on Arch. What about moving *all* Haskell related packages to the Haskell Arch repo? All the Haskell Platform stuff, alex, happy, etc. Ethan Schoonover Github/Freenode: altercation - Solarized: http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized On Sat, Dec 17, 2011 at 13:44, Ionut Biru <biru.ionut@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On 12/17/2011 11:41 PM, Bernardo Barros wrote: >> Haskell platform was released with the latest stable GHC (7.0.4 of course). >> >> Guys, what's happening with haskell support in Arch? >> >> Xmonad, and now GHC and lots of packages in the supported repos are >> not keeping update with upstream. > > i vote for dropping xmonad and all packages to aur and let the community > handle them. > > it seems we are not doing a great job at keeping them up to date. > > -- > Ionuț
