2. Should Arch provide the binary Haskell Platform set in [extra] and [community] (+ any other popular executables), and the newest version of everything else that forms a coherent install plan, in AUR.
+1 * even if it would mean downgrading 6.12.1 to 6.10.4 * the binary version should be the stable one, if somebody wants to be very up to date, then aur is for him/her It would be also good to have the latest ghc package in aur which sometimes/often would be newer than the binary package in extra. Having more repositories for haskell packages (based on which ghc version they depend on) looks nice but I personally do not really care. Extra and aur sounds good enough. I like the idea that all haskell package dependencies will be in the provides list (even when there are some tools (yaourt) which do not support it now - the bug should be fixed where it is (yaourt)). Thanks for working on this, Peter.
