Would it be ok to start work on bumping our package set to a newer set of working packages and compilers? What is the state of the wip-haskell branch? Thank you for working on this. Recently, I have tried to setup some Haskell environment -- previously I was using Debian packages -- and I was a bit lost. Using Debian, I am just doing "apt-get install haskell-platform" and it fits my needs as beginner. Does something similar exist in Guix? If yes, which package is it? If not, could we add it? (I have tried to express this here [1]). [1] https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2020-04/msg00318.html Thanks, simon
