I am strongly bothered by the fact that the PkgBuild "Show" function is implemented in cabal2arch and not in the archlinux module, is there anybody against merging them together ?

I was actually more bothered about the number of executables that are contained in archlinux; my initial thought was to break them out and put them in cabal2arch, thereby making archlinux a pure library package. ;-)

I personally think that archlinux itself has too many dependencies. I'd like to have three packages - archlinux: a set of libraries needed for cabal2arch and managing the repos - cabal2arch: cabal2arch + basic scripts to find upstream updates and do database-like operations - archlinux-report: library+programs used to upload to AUR, interact with website, update web pages etc.

I like this split.  Is it something that you would like to prototype?

I split archlinux into archlinux and archlinux-web, feel free to pull my repo [*]. archlinux is now buildable with only GHC. To ease moving files around, I've put everything together. [*] http://github.com/remyoudompheng/haskell-archlinux -- Rémy.
