Hi,

Jeremy Shaw ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) has a template for debianizing
libraries that have been cabalized. That probably won't quite cut it for
yhc, but between that and the packaging for ghc, we could probably cook
something up.

Alas Yhc not been Cabalised at all, we hope it will one day, but
unfortunately Cabal is quite a way off being able to do all the
necessary bits.

If we can successfully package it, we'd be happy to
host the debs.

We have plenty of space to host it, but are happy to shove it wherever
is most useful for the users.

I'll try and take a stab at it some evening.

Thanks very much, any questions on the general compiling of Yhc can be
directed at yhc -at- haskell.org - but the wiki should make it pretty
easy.

Thanks

Neil
