Announce: The Haskell Platform 2011.4

We're pleased to announce the release of the Haskell Platform: a single, standard Haskell distribution for everyone. Download the Haskell Platform 2011.4.0.0: http://haskell.org/platform/ The specification, along with installers (including Windows, Apple and Unix installers for a full Haskell environment) are available. The Haskell Platform is a single, standard Haskell distribution for every system, in the form of a blessed library and tool suite for Haskell distilled from the thousands of libraries on Hackage, along with installers for a wide variety of systems. It saves developers work picking and choosing the best Haskell libraries and tools to use for a task. When you install the Haskell Platform, you get the latest stable compiler, an expanded set of core libraries, additional development tools, and cabal-install – so you can download anything else you need from Hackage. What you get is specified here: http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/contents.html Thanks! -- The Platform Infrastructure Team P.S. Special thanks to Mark Lentczner for his excellent work on this release.

we are pleased to announce the release of the Haskell Platform on Debian: Version 2011.4.0.0 has just been uploaded to the unstable suite. In a few hours you will see it also on http://packages.debian.org/sid/haskell-platform (Ok, this is a bit of cheating; we have packaged the required libraries already a few weeks back, based on the unreleased platform cabal file at http://code.haskell.org/haskell-platform/haskell-platform.cabal, and now just bumped the version number of the meta package.) If everything goes well the updated packages will be available in Debian testing (“wheezy”) in two or three days. Note that Debian slightly deviates from the version constraints as specified in the official platform package, due to non-platform libraries and programs requiring newer versions. At the moment, this is: alex version 3.0.1 instead of 2.3.5 cgi version 3001.1.8.2 instead of 2001.1.7.4 network version 2.3.0.6 instead of 2.3.0.5 You can always check the various platform package versions available in Debian stable (“squeeze”), testing (“wheezy”) and unstable (“sid”) on http://people.debian.org/~nomeata/platform.html On behalf of the Debian Haskell Group, Joachim Breitner -- Joachim "nomeata" Breitner Debian Developer nomeata@debian.org | ICQ# 74513189 | GPG-Keyid: 4743206C JID: nomeata@joachim-breitner.de | http://people.debian.org/~nomeata
