I've a longer discussion prepared, but would like to also start a discussion about 2009 goals for the Haskell support on our distro.
Sometimes we need to package haskell packages which have their dependencies in AUR. I suppose for most common Haskell applications, the dependencies will be taken care of by having haskell-platform installed, but it would be nice to have some way of having the dependency auto-updated in the case it has to be added to [community] manually. BTW, what happened to the x86_64 repository for Haskell packages? As vegai mentioned, it is certainly not neccessary to have all packages of Haskell packaged :) But it can be done easily now, we just need a server to build the packages. At least Haskell PKGBUILDs should continue to be uploaded to AUR. -- Abhishek
