Hi everyone, This is the call for testing for FreeBSD Haskell ports update which is planned to land up in the official ports tree in few weeks. The FreeBSD Haskell ports tree is hosted as portshaker-able[1] git[2] repository on github, accessible at the following URL, along with the instructions on how to use it: https://www.github.com/freebsd-haskell/freebsd-haskell/ We're also making available binary packages for 8.x (amd64) and 8.x (i386) versions from the following URLs: 8.x (amd64) http://haskell.hu.freebsd.org/packages/8-amd64/ 8.x (i386) http://haskell.hu.freebsd.org/packages/8-i386/ To install the available binary packages using pkg_add(1), please set "PACKAGESITE" enviroment variable to "$url/Latest", where "$url" is the URL mentioned above, e.g. to install "hs-porte" for 8.x (amd64): % sudo PACKAGESITE=http://haskell.hu.freebsd.org/packages/8-amd64/Latest/ pkg_add -r hs-porte Following is the list of Haskell related ports which we've updated in the FreeBSD Haskell repository, but aren't owned by haskell@ : net/hs-pcap graphics/hs-hgl devel/hs-BNFC devel/hs-bsd-sysctl ports-mgmt/hs-porte lang/whitespace Could their respective maintainers (CC'd) please review the changes and approve them, if it looks good to them?
