Hi all, I have been gradually working on a new common backend for my different pacman wrappers and helper tools. It is finally available for testing here[1]. One of the main features is that it is extensible: developers can add build support for both Pacman and non-Pacman repos by implementing 3 subclasses in a Python module. It should be possible to add support for Hackage with cblrepo and the other tools currently used to maintain arch-haskell. Most users will presumably prefer to continue to use the pre-compiled binary GHC package in the repo but being able to easily built it and other packages would be interesting, especially if it could support a larger subset of Hackage than what is available in arch-haskell currently. Anyway, if Magnus or anyone else wants to play around with it and discuss ideas, please visit the thread. I hope that there will eventually be numerous quality extensions for various third-party repos (e.g. Hackage, CPAN, PyPI, RubyGems, etc.).
