Any thoughts or comments on this?

But there is also cases like qtHaskell that are not straightforward to build by hand, and it is not in hackage. That should have a [aur] if not present in [haskell]

qtHaskell is special, because it's not on Hackage. That's why it isn't in [haskell].

...

In most cases since cabal does a better job, [aur] packages should be strongly discouraged.

IMNSHO we should never look at cabal as a replacement for an Arch repo or [aur].

How do you make the distinction between using cabal-install and [haskell] in you day-to-day use.

I don't use cabal-install, so it's simple to make the distinction :) /M -- Magnus Therning                      OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org   jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe               http://therning.org/magnus
