Remy has done some rather low-level work on the archlinux git repo, splitting it into two repos. Unfortunately this means that all existing clones are likely to be very broken at the moment. Given how soon after the creation of the github repos this was done, I'm not expecting it to cause major grief. Also note that this *only* affects the archlinux repo, the habs and cabal2arch repos are untouched by this. With this I feel we are in a good position to announce to the large Arch community of the changes to how Haskell is handled in Arch, together with the plans for the future. /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus@therning.org Jabber: magnus@therning.org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe

Hello, Basic functions that output a topologically sorted list of package names, that is the order in which packages are meant to be built according to dependencies, are now implemented. I wrote an example script to show how it works: it is meant to work with my copy of the archlinux library [*] import Distribution.ArchLinux.SrcRepo import System.IO import System.Directory import Control.Monad main = do dot <- getCurrentDirectory repo <- getRepoFromDir dot case repo of Nothing -> return () Just r -> foldM (\a -> \s -> putStrLn s) () (dumpContentsTopo r) [*] git://github.com/remyoudompheng/archhaskell.git -- Rémy

Great work! Maybe put together a blog post on the archhaskell site?

Yes, I was planning on doing that. Hopefully I'll find the time before the end of the coming weekend. /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus@therning.org Jabber: magnus@therning.org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe
