Hi all,
GHC 6.6.1 packages are in Haskell Unsafe (amd64 only, although you can build the source on your arch if you want (please let me know if you try this, regardless of whether it succeeds or fails)):
http://haskell-unsafe.alioth.debian.org/haskell-unsafe.html
Currently the only extralib packaged is mtl (libghc6-mtl-{dev,prof,doc}). More will probably follow soon.
All the extralibs are there now, along with a new haskell-utils. Also, ghc6 and mtl have changed.
Incidentally, the major differences from the 6.6 packages are:
* From the developer's PoV, debian/control.in is the same for all the libraries and the library (build)-deps are automatically generated.
* From the user's PoV, the docs at /usr/share/doc/ghc6-doc/html/libraries/index.html include docs for all libraries that are installed. Also, the -prof stuff is in its own package, so doesn't drag in gh6-prof.
Unless something comes up, I plan to start uploading these to Debian this weekend, but as before, note that these packages may not be what end up being uploaded to Debian and <insert standard no disclaimer stuff here>.
Thanks Ian
