I followed your nice post and made a minimal debian machine with haskell installed (skipped the ruby and puppet stuff). I had some problems installing debian jessie on virtualbox but managed to get there by first installing debian stable and then upgrading to jessie. It would be nice to be able to automate the whole process of creating a box with packer and vagrant. I may attempt to do this using ansible instead of puppet or chef. Thanks.

Thanks. I am also reading about provisioning tools like Chef, Puppet and Ansible. So far I liked Ansible the most because it looks simpler.

I would like to set up a minimal reproducible Haskell development environment on Manjaro Linux (64-bit) running on VirtualBox.
Does anyone have a Packer template for this distro or a Vagrant box for Haskell development on any other distro?
Thanks.

Setting up your own vagrant box is fairly straight forward, you can then just install the tools you want to always be available and then use that as a base box.
I recently went through itself myself and wrote an article[0] about it, it should be easy to follow and just change the distro I used (Debian) with whatever you want.
Since you mentioned packer.io this might also be relevant to you https://github.com/opscode/bento ..
