But it should be "haskell"
For Haskell _libraries_ I agree. But not for anything Haskell-based. Package section is labelled "Haskell programming language and libraries" - implementations of Haskell and libraries to extend it belong there. Packages like gitit, hledger and pandoc-citeproc do not belong in haskell section. Probably same (judging from their descriptions) for arbtt, hbro, hopenpgp-tools, hsbrainfuck, mighttpd2, shelltestrunner, taffybar, unlambda, x509-util. Package categories are about purpose, not implementation style. Haskell is not the only package section with plenty of wrongly categorized packages... - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
