Hello! I am confused about how should I setup my development environment to develop haskell packages. I want to improve cabal-debian-4.17.4, since it provides only binary, and I it to provide library as well, because it is much more flexible. To build it, I need haskell-debian-3.83.3.1 from experimental, which conflicts with almost everything. If I upgrade ghc to experimental, it is okay, but now I fail to install libghc-bool-extras, which is my package and now in sid. I am okay on tracking bleeding edge. Where can I read how all this works?
Also, I plan to package git-vogue binary, but it depends on base >=4.7 (ghc-7.8). What is its fate? Is it any way I can speed up moving of ghc-7.8 into at least sid? 7.10 is coming, and we have only 7.8 even in experimental. Same question applies to, for hlint. In experimental it is outdated, I am working on getting hlint-1.9.15(which depends `extra` library), but how should I check, that this update will not break something? Again, please point me to memo, how does this all works? cabal-debian: Installed: 4.17.4-4 Candidate: 4.17.4-4 Version table: *** 4.17.4-4 0 200 http://mirror.yandex.ru/debian/ experimental/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 4.17.4-1 0 400 http://mirror.yandex.ru/debian/ jessie/main amd64 Packages 300 http://mirror.yandex.ru/debian/ sid/main amd64 Packages 1.25-1 0 500 http://mirror.yandex.ru/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages libghc-hlint-dev: Installed: (none) Candidate: 1.8.61-1+b2 Package pin: 1.8.61-1+b2 Version table: 1.8.61-2+b1 500 200 http://mirror.yandex.ru/debian/ experimental/main amd64 Packages 1.8.61-1+b2 500 400 http://mirror.yandex.ru/debian/ jessie/main amd64 Packages 300 http://mirror.yandex.ru/debian/ sid/main amd64 Packages 1.8.28-1+b3 500 500 http://mirror.yandex.ru/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages -- Best regards, Dmitry Bogatov <kact...@gnu.org>, Free Software supporter, esperantisto and netiquette guardian.
