This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes
process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive
community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved
by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee.

== Summary ==
Idris 2 is a dependently typed practical functional programming language.


== Owner ==
* Name: [[User:Petersen| Jens Petersen]]
* Email: <petersen@xxxxxxxxxx>


== Detailed Description ==
[https://www.idris-lang.org/ Idris] is a dependently typed functional
programming language with first-class types.

Idris 1 (written in Haskell) has been
[https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/idris included] in Fedora for many
years, but is no longer maintained and increasingly hard to build with
newer GHC versions. Idris 2 is a complete rewrite on top of a Scheme
compiler (either [https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/chez-scheme
chez-scheme] (preferred and added to Fedora for F41) or
[https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/racket racket]), which replaced
idris-1.

== Feedback ==


== Benefit to Fedora ==
Continue to provide an easy way to install the Idris programming language.

== Scope ==
* Proposal owners:
** complete the package review of idris2
([https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2314358 review])
** build idris2 for Fedora

== Upgrade/compatibility impact ==
If idris-1 can no longer build with
[[Changes/Haskell_GHC_9.8_and_Stackage_23]] then idris2 can obsolete
it.

== How To Test ==
* install idris2
* try examples from [https://www.idris-lang.org/pages/example.html tutorial] etc

== User Experience ==
Users will be able to use the latest major version of the Idris
programming language easily.


== Dependencies ==


== Contingency Plan ==
* Contingency mechanism: (What to do?  Who will do it?) N/A (not a
System Wide Change)
* Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
* Blocks release? N/A (not a System Wide Change)

== Documentation ==
* https://www.idris-lang.org/pages/documentation.html
* https://idris2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

== Release Notes ==
* idris2 has been added to Fedora
