Hi archhaskellers!
Long time ago I wrote in this list about the idea of using cblrepo for maintaining two or more repositories. Well, you can find the results here: https://github.com/EffeErre/habs-extra .
The main idea is that every needed package already present in haskell repo is added as a DistroPkg. This is done via a script that uses both *cblrepo* and *cabal install* to find dependencies and latest available packages. I will put the script on github as soon as possible. At the moment it can check only a main cblrepo.db and work in another one. It should check many cblrepo.db files in order to be really useful.
After some (*very slow*) testing, I ended up with a "haskell-extra" repo. You can find it here: http://archhaskell.mynerdside.com/haskell-extra/x86_64/. They are mainly web-related package: snap, yesod, hakyll, mighttpd2... IMHO there's no need for a different repository: it would be better to merge this in main [haskell].
Excellent! I had been thinking the next direction to turn was to add some web frameworks and such, and you have beat me to it -- though I did get a hakyll package built, but it is not yet in a state that can be shared. I look forward to your work being integrated into the [haskell] repo. Greg
Hope this can be helpful, Fabio
