Hi Arch-Haskellers, CC Mateusz Herych,

Does anyone know why is lhs2tex outdated in AUR?

I suggest to (automatically) package it using cabal2arch like most of the Hackage packages are packaged. If it requites some manual intervention I suggest to ask Matesz (the current maintainer) to update it. In case if he is busy and does not have enough time I (or some one else who volunteers) would do it.

I think lhs2tex is a nice, useful and mature piece of software and does not deserve to be outdated in AUR ;). IMHO, it is well placed to be included in the community repo as well.

It's not on hackage, so arch-haskell tends not to watch it, I think is the main problem.

It is. See, http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/lhs2tex and "cabal install lhs2tex" works without any problems.

Thanks for your timely response.

Ah ha, then perhaps it needs updating :) Ah, but now I see why it isn't updated: lhs2tex 1.14-1 http://people.cs.uu.nl/andres/lhs2tex/ Preprocessor to generate LaTeX code from literate Haskell sources. unsupported :: devel Maintainer: partition arch-haskell isn't the owner, so we can't fix it :( Attached is a PKGBULD nonetheless. Perhaps it is time to take this one over too. -- Don
