[arch-haskell] Using makeahpkg

2012-07-25 Thread Alessandro Pezzoni
Hello, I'm trying to use the 'makehapkg' script to build Haskell packages, as suggested by Magnus Therning, but I'm having some issues with it. Though it works fine for packages without dependencies other than ghc, like haskell-xdg-basedir (not currently in habs), it fails to install extra

Hello list, I'm trying to add numeric-prelude [1] to the habs tree [2], with the intent of making a pull-request and providing a compiled package, as this seems to be what I should do to contribute to the [haskell] repo. When I try to make some PKGBUILDs, though, I get a dependency on ghc=7.4.1-1,

Hello, Sadly I haven't got around the haskell-related dependency issues myself (haskell packages depend on specific versions of other haskell packages, thus pacman complains when you try to update them). I can tell you, though, that ghc 7.4.1 has been moved to [extra] and [haskell], and that the

 AFAIU you have 1. Cloned `habs`. 2. Added a package using `cblrepo`. 3. Used `cblrepo` to create the source package and verified that it compiles properly. Almost correct, yes. Basically, I am trying to upgrade the haskell-hlint package (and dependencies haskell-cpphs and haskell-uniplate).

2012-03-02 Thread Alessandro Pezzoni
`ghc-paths` used to be in [extra]/[community] at some point, I wonder why it was removed. I tried adding it to habs but I couldn't do that, because it is already there as a base package. I can't remove it either without removing all its dependants first. Should I leave this alone until we
