Hi everybody,

I am glad to hear it. Sometimes installing packages with Cabal and with the distro packages can make an evil mess.
You are right. But I'm not happy with cabal installing *a lot* of different version of packages. I think that completing the archhaskell repository is the way to go. Pacman is much more better.
I agree. That is why, now that I have a little extra time, because it's summer, I've been learning to work with the tools like cblrepo and github and even (ouch!) git, instead of using cabal-install. Well, I did do a quick cabal-install of the Colour package this afternoon, but that is only temporary. Although it takes a little longer to make Arch Linux packages, I am convinced that it will leave me more sane in the long run. And this way I can also contribute what I build to the Arch Haskell community. It looks like my first contribution (haskell-opengl and related packages) will get integrated into the [haskell] repo soon. So I hope more people will do this, as you have also been doing, Fabio!
As for hakyll, you can find a compiled package here: http://archhaskell.mynerdside.com/haskell-extra/x86_64/. This version is linked with main [haskell] repository, so it's not the newest one as it would need a newer blaze-html.
Hope this can help. Cheers, Fabio
