[Fedora-haskell-list] plans for F17 branching and ghc-7.4.1

[Jens Petersen]

Hi,

Next week Fedora 17 is due to branch in package git,
so now is a good time to do pending minor version bumps of packages
before branching:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?emailcc1=1&emailtype1=substring&email1=fedora-haskell-list%40redhat.com&bug_status=__open__&short_desc=is%20available&short_desc_type=substring&field0-0-0=component&type0-0-0=notequals&value0-0-0=Package%20Review&field0-1-0=status_whiteboard&type0-1-0=isnull

I will try to do some of them too.

After F17 branches then I'd like to build ghc-7.4.1 which was just
released "yesterday" for Rawhide (once I work out how to build it
with system libffi...;) - of course that will require rebuilding
all the libraries on the master branch again...  I am not planning
to backport 7.4.1 to F17 - at least not any time soon,
though I would like to backport haskell-platform-2011.4 from F17 to F16.
