Is anyone fixing this? It looks like none of the modules can be installed.
We should have a new version of ghc on monday or sometime next week which will kick off a rebuild that will fix this. I'm leaning towards leaving this broken until the rebuild for the new ghc version. Especially since it's been 3 months and there hasn't been a single bug reported for this afaik. This reaffirms my suspicion that no one really uses most of the archlinux packaged haskell libraries.
I can not speak for pinot though.
I'll help with rebuild of haskell packages in [community]. I'd like to keep xmonad/xmonad-contrib/xmobar in [community] since it's nice to have these common haskell applications. (although pkgstats tells me otherwise ;) ) So maybe haskell-gtk (and related deps: haskell-pango, haskell-glib, haskell-cairo can go) There are some haskell libraries which are standalone and nothing depends on: - haskell-http - haskell-zlib - haskell-tar - haskell-regex-compat - haskell-regex-posix I'd suggest we remove those! -- Jelle van der Waa
