Hi,
This mail is a little lately but here are a few items of news and recent
Fedora Haskell related developments:
* As previously mentioned I built haskell-platform-2011.4 for F17 rawhide recently.
This was quite a lot of work to do all the rebuilds needed
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/HaskellPlatform2011.4
* cblrepo tool helped a lot to work out an ordered list of packages that needed rebuilding.
I have imported cblrepo metadata for current releases into haskell-sig.git.
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=haskell-sig.git;a=tree;f=cblrepo
There is an update script/hack too which works. (If you want to use it
note you first need to generate package version data in "packages/".)
* cabal2spec-0.25.2 has been in rawhide for a little while now
and I am pushing updates for F16 and F15 too - it requires
the latest ghc-rpm-macros which are ready to be pushed to stable.
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-0141/ghc-rpm-macros-0.1…
If you look at the templates in http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=cabal2spec.git;a=tree
you can see that I factored out some new macros:
%ghc_devel_package
%ghc_devel_description
%ghc_devel_post_postun
%ghc_files
This makes things more concise than the current stable verbose templates
but still keeps the same flexible while handling archs with and without
shared libraries in a cleaner way. I hope people will like this.
I have already updated quite a lot packages in rawhide with these
macros so there should be plenty of examples of usage available.
I am also planning to update our draft Packaging Guidelines again for this.
* ghc has been built for F15 ARM!
I expect to have all packages that can build done for F17.
ghc-7.4 will provide better support for ARM with llvm-3.0.
* Finally: originally I was thinking of doing ghc74 for F17 but I think now
it will be better, more realistic, and less work to wait for F18 and an official
Haskell Platform release for ghc-7.4 first. In the meantime I may try
to create a testing repo for ghc-7.4.1 after it is released.

After all this I hope we can now continue our packaging efforts
specially for web frameworks moving. :)
Happy New Year!
Thanks, Jens

Hello,
Since getting Haskell related upgrades from Yum recently, my Cabal
project is failing to build. I'm not entirely sure how to interpret the
error messages but it looks to me like the ghc-Cabal package itself is
broken?
Here's the error: http://hpaste.org/56377
Thanks, Dag

I took ownership of the haskell packages of bos: I had already been maintaining for a while anyway as comaintainer.
And it makes more sense that one person owns all the haskell-platform packages anyway.
Thanks to Bryan for his long involvement in and help with Fedora Haskell:
he is fully committed to Haskell development and churning out some great libraries
in the community in recent years that a lot of people are using.
I hope he will still continue to use Fedora Haskell for his projects anyway. :)
