Hi, I want to suggest that the Arch Haskell group create their own repo and ABS tree, and withdraw from the AUR. Requests to orphan neglected haskell packages come up relatively often on the aur-general mailing list and the lack of active support is a cause of frustration, even if it is understandable. Creating a separate binary repo and an ABS tree would provide consistency and could be made official (maybe hosted on archlinux.org and mirrored, or hackage). Users who wish to maintain haskell packages in the AUR could then do so without interfering with global consistency. Those who need newer packages could enable the AUR via e.g. bauerbill and those who simply wish to have access to the full set provided by Arch Haskell would enable the repo or build from its ABS tree. Maybe I could even provide support in bauerbill. Is this reasonable? Feasible? Regards, Xyne
