hi: I'd like to know if there are or will be aviable .deb packages of last hugs version.

That's up to individual Debian maintainers. This page: http://packages.debian.org/stable/interpreters/hugs.html lists Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho (ajk@debian.org) as the maintainer. I have copied this message to him. [Dear Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho: It's coming up for 6 months since the last release. Is there anything we can do to help?] In the meantime, it's pretty easy to install your own copy of Hugs using the "Generic Unix" instructions on: http://cvs.haskell.org/Hugs/pages/downloading.htm Just download the tarfile and run this (based on hugs98-Dec2001/Install): tar zxvf hugs98-Dec2001.tar.gz cd hugs98-Dec2001/src/unix ./configure --prefix=$HOME/local --with-readline cd .. make install make clean then put $HOME/local/bin (or whatever) on your PATH. This isn't as convenient as using the debian package but it's still pretty easy. -- Alastair Reid reid@cs.utah.edu http://www.cs.utah.edu/~reid/
