I vote for 7.4.1. Things are moving beyond 7.0.4. HP is a nice idea, but I've never really used it on Arch - I just install the Haskell packages I need and their dependencies are automatically installed. Here, I view it more of a "blessed baseline" for the larger goal of supporting as many useful Haskell packages together as possible. -Leif On Fri, Feb 3, 2012 at 7:28 AM, Magnus Therning <magnus@therning.org> wrote:
It's been out for a day now... this would be a good time to decide whether ArchLinux should be bold and move to a haskell-platform-free state, or trudge on with HP and the ache it causes.
If we're moving to 7.4.1 there's a lot of work with getting ArchHaskell in shape for it, so the longer notice the better :)
If we're to trudge on with HP then we really ought to move to 2011.4.0.0, which also means a new version of GHC and a lot of work on ArchHaskell, so the longer notice the better :)
Please, please, please, can we move on this soon?
I'm available to help out with [extra]&[community] packages if need be, updating PKGBUILDs, building, verifying other's changes, etc.
