Hi Rémy,

I'd rather have haskell-parallel-2.2.0.1 in [extra].
The distinction between haskell-X and haskell-hp-X sounds good in theory, but I don't believe that the consequences of that change are sufficiently understood, nor am I convinced that we posses a tool-chain that's capable of taking advantage of that distinction. At this point in time, that change looks like a lot of risks and very little payoff.
I made an attempt at providing exactly this, at http://linode3.kiwilight.com/~magnus.therning/archhaskell/x86_64/ Please have a look at it and let me know what you find. I'm fairly sure those packages need some further tweaking, but my gut feeling tells me it *is* possible to do this and end up with a system that is convenient to use. /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe
