Given the number of packages affected, it = was discussed on #guix that it would be good to have a branch for these cha= nges and to have Cuirass build the Haskell packages to look for breakage. How do we feel about this? I'm happy to help with some patches I've submitt= ed and update some packages, though it would also be good to have someone e= xperienced with Haskell packaging and/or Guix too. (I'm new to both, but I'= ve had success with my patches at least, locally.) Here is a (partial) list of the most recent bugs and patches that would bel= ong on this branch: - https://issues.guix.gnu.org/48944 (build failure for new package, address= ed by next patch) - https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49199 (patch to add package-db to runhaskell = to help with non-trivial configure stage; worked around in existing package= s with a TODO marked to make this change actually) - https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49418 (metadata revisions not imported, so e.= g. dependency requirements out of date) - https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49326 (bug with specifying ghc version for bu= ilding) - https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49320 (importer doesn't support some stages) - https://issues.guix.gnu.org/48999 (local source for Haskell packages) I'm not sure what we would want to include or not in such a branch, but I t= hink it would make sense to put together the build-system and related chang= es at least. Some package updates (like a ghc version) would also affect a = lot of packages, so might be good to do that together as well. Thanks, John
