I would suggest calling this package simple "hlint", as it is primarily a tool. `~Eric > + (version "1.9.21") > + (source > + (origin > + (method url-fetch) > + (uri (string-append > + "http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hlint/hlint-" > + version > + ".tar.gz")) > + (sha256 > + (base32 > + "14v3rdjjlml9nimdk7d5dvir2bw78ai49yylvms9lnzmw29s3546")))) > + (build-system haskell-build-system) > + (inputs > + `(("ghc-cpphs" ,ghc-cpphs) > + ("ghc-cmdargs" ,ghc-cmdargs) > + ("ghc-haskell-src-exts" ,ghc-haskell-src-exts) > + ("ghc-uniplate" ,ghc-uniplate) > + ("ghc-ansi-terminal" ,ghc-ansi-terminal) > + ("ghc-extra" ,ghc-extra) > + ("ghc-hscolour" ,ghc-hscolour))) > + (home-page > + "http://community.haskell.org/~ndm/hlint/") > + (synopsis "Source code suggestions") "Make suggestions for Haskell source code" > + (description > + "HLint gives suggestions on how to improve your source code.") How about, from the home-page: "HLint reads Haskell programs and suggests changes that hopefully make them easier to read. HLint also makes it easy to disable unwanted suggestions, and to add your own custom suggestions." > + (license bsd-3))) > + > (define-public ghc-cpphs > (package > (name "ghc-cpphs") > -- > 2.5.0 >
