Just to show what HABS would look like using this tool I've put up a
full repository here: http://db.tt/0aRhLWE (under newhabs).

Since Planet Haskell hasn't been updating for a long time I thought I'd point to a blog post of mine on a tool I've been working on for a while:
http://therning.org/magnus/archives/914
It's something I started working on earlier this year, after it became painfully obvious just how much work it was to check dependencies when updating the packages in ArchHaskell. That was pretty much all it was good for then, but it proved to be a big time saver when used in concert with cabal2arch. Lately I've been working on integrating PKGBUILD generation, which basically means that a repo like https://github.com/archhaskell/habs can be replaced by a database and a set of package-specific patches.
I still haven't gotten around to uploading it to Hackage, it needs some minor cosmetic changes (like a proper version number), but please let me know if you think a tool like this would be useful.
