list closure
by Ganesh Sittampalam 24 Jan '09

24 Jan '09

I have now closed this list, and attempts to post to it will be rejected with a suitable message. If you still haven't subscribed to the replacement, you should do so at http://lists.debian.org/debian-haskell/ We still need to get the archives merged into the lists.debian.org archives if possible. I did say I'd try to handle this a while ago but I haven't had time and I can't promise I will for a while. Cheers, Ganesh

The urchin list?
by Magnus Therning 13 Jan '09

13 Jan '09

Is the lists.urchin.earth.li list ever going away? With the two lists co-existing they seem to be causing some confusion. In order to get all mails for debian-haskell I need to be subscribed to both and at the same time I feel I need to send all mails to both lists in order to make sure the entire target group receives them. Can't we just close the urchin one, possibly with an automatic response pointing to lists.debian.org when someone tries to post to it? /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus Haskell is an even 'redder' pill than Lisp or Scheme. -- PaulPotts

Re: [Debian-haskell] Activity?

Update your repository to unstable. There are enough Haskell tools there to do pretty much anything. Installing a great deal through the unstable package, I was able to successfully build some of even the more obscure libraries / applications from hackage without recursively searching for and building correct versions of other dependent libraries. The only problem I have seen is if you need base 4. But I don't need it, so I have no problems here.

Activity?
by Erik de Castro Lopo 13 Jan '09

13 Jan '09

Hi all, I've been on this mailing list for a week and I have not seen any traffic at all. As a long term user of Ocaml and a relatively new user of Haskell I find the packaging of Ocaml tools and libraries on Debian far superior to that of Haskell. Is there any any interest in improving Haskell support? Cheers, Erik -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Erik de Castro Lopo ----------------------------------------------------------------- "To me C++ seems to be a language that has sacrificed orthogonality and elegance for random expediency." -- Meilir Page-Jones

Best way to package Haskell package for Debian?
by Magnus Therning 07 Oct '08

07 Oct '08

Has a best way for packaging Haskell packages (modules, not binaries) for Debian crystallised yet? I'd like to make sure I'm following all the rules to better my chances of actually getting the package into Sid in the end. What's available that will help me in this regard? /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus Haskell is an even 'redder' pill than Lisp or Scheme. -- PaulPotts

I'm CCing the Debian/Haskell list; anyone up for this? Debian will need it pretty soon anyway to qualify for the "Haskell Platform" seal of approval :-) (I think you have to be subscribed to the list in order to post, incidentally) Thanks Ian

How to get haddock 2 into Debian
by Joachim Breitner 05 Oct '08

05 Oct '08

Hi, I’d like to bring up http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=464364 again, because haddock 2 has some features I’d really like to see. From what I’m reading in http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/cvs-ghc/2008-June/042779.html haddock 2 can only work on files that were compiled with the version of ghc that haddock was compiled with itself. Is that right? The problem is then that during the build of a new ghc6 source (which includes building the docs for that), the old haddock used to build documentation, which then fails. Is that right as well? What solutions are possible? I can think of: 1. Including haddock in the ghc6 source. 2. Not building the ghc6 docs during the ghc6 build, but from a separate source file, so that ghc6 can be built, then a new haddock version, and then the docs for everything. 3. Ignoring haddock errors in the ghc6 build process, and re-building the ghc6 packages after haddock has built against the new ghc6 (assuming that the internal GHC version does not change just by re-building ghc). 4. Finding a way for haddock to work independent of the ghc6 that has built the files. Anything that we can rule out? Anything that sounds reasonable? I’m no expert in this matter, so I’d like to hear your opinion.
