I think such things should be automated. I dislike the tradition of having a manual-labor-intensive step in the process of converting the latest source code in the repository into a package for a platform. I'm willing to help out with the project of automating the production of platform-specific packages. Are there any tools in Haskell world which are well suited to this purpose? (In Python world, there are tools which start with the Python equivalent of a cabal file and a source tree and go on to produce a .deb or a .msi.)
