Comment (by petersen):
I would like to request that all haskell-sig packages be excluded from the
mass rebuild.
I can attach a list of the packages in a convenient form here.
I have started updating quite a number of libraries and packages in git
master already
in preparation for landing ghc-7.8 soon, and building those packages
prematurely
will very likely cause noticeable breakage of rawhide, so I would like
to take responsibility for rebuilding all the Fedora Haskell packages
later this month
as part of
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/GHC_7.8.
Replying to [comment:2 jreznik]:
are no ordering requirements for the haskell-using packages the F21 mass
rebuild could be used for rebuilding them (from
https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1275).
(Rebuilding would be okay if all the git HEADs were already built in
rawhide but this is not the case and yes there are strong ordering
requirements when versions change.)
It will probably be another week or two before we are ready to build
ghc-7.8 in Rawhide,
hopefully with a new 7.8.3 upstream bugfix release which is due soon.
