Hello,
Two announcements: new version of haskell-devscripts and new version
of cabalDebianTemplate!
It would be great to get some feedback on these updates before the GHC
6.6 release. Since people will already be rebuilding their packages
for the new version of GHC 6.6, it will be a great time for people to
also add profiling packages.
haskell-devscripts 0.5.12
-------------------------
haskell-devscripts now supports building profiling libraries for
GHC. All you should need to do is:
1. update your Build-Depends to haskell-devscripts (>= 0.5.12)
2. in debian/control:
i. copy the libghc6-*-dev paragraph to libghc6-*-prof
ii. in the libghc6-*-prof paragraph:
a. change Depends on libghc6-*-dev packages to libghc6-*-prof packages
b. update the Description to mention profiling
cabalDebianTemplate
-------------------
http://www.n-heptane.com/nhlab/repos/cabalDebianTemplate/
I have incorporated the following changes:
+ Build profiling libraries by default using new haskell-devscripts
+ Greatly improved instructions in INSTRUCTIONS.txt
+ Included a bit of information about using update-debian-control to
maintain the build and install dependencies in INSTRUCTIONS.txt
+ Cleaned up debian/rules and debian/control
If you find errors in INSTRUCTIONS.txt, or can think of a better way
to explain a step, please submit a report and/or patch.
Thanks!
j.
