ghc-9.8 for F42

[Jens-Ulrik Petersen]

Just a heads-up that I have submitted
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Haskell_GHC_9.8_and_Stackage_23
for Fedora 42 (ahead of tomorrow's submission deadline).

Let me know if you have any questions or feedback.

Thanks, Jens

Too long passed, but I am finally building the packages now in a sidetag -
at least for F43 Rawhide.
Perhaps I will push to F42 as well, let's see, though it is rather right
before the final freeze.

Please hold off on touching any of your Haskell packages in dist-git until
the Rawhide sidetag has been merged.

Thanks, Jens

I haven't forgotten to update here...
Unfortunately I had to restart my building work due to a serious ghc issue
with Unique Word64 on i686...
So please hold on and be patient a little longer.

Thanks, Jens

Now I did forget to update here...: all the new builds were pushed into
Rawhide over the last week (and pushed to public repos on Monday)

see https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2025-8c24ced850 for
details.

I probably won't do the backport to F42 sadly it seems a bit late for that,
though I will consider such pleas.

Thanks, Jens
