Please give it a good home. =D Cheers, updated: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=164 Tuomo says, I'm not in the cabal and don't care about their shit. Riot has no non-standard deps, because they're too fast moving targets, and everything seems to be arranged into a Single Global Megahierarchy That Perfectly Categorises Everything To The Point Of Total Unusability. So he's rejected the cabalisation upstream, sadly. -- Don

10 weeks after the Arch Haskell group started, there are now 500 Haskell packages bundled up for Arch. I've written about how we automated the construction of Arch packages from Haskell Cabal format, via the cabal2arch tool, and a small survey of 10 nice packages from the set, here, http://cgi.cse.unsw.edu.au/~dons/blog/2008/08/21#the_500 Cheers, Don
