Hi,
just to clarify the current state of haskell ports (because it looks
like it's *not* obvious):
- lang/ghc and meta/haskell-platform are marked as BROKEN to avoid
error spam for package builders and to avoid trouble for people
using snapshot packages. it's just a harsh method to stop any
partial or inconsitant set of hs-packages from beeing built (and
eventually appearing on the mirrors).
- all hs-ports updated/touched so far (including meta/haskell-platform,
devel/darcs and x11/xmonad) should be buildable (at least on amd64
-- on i386 there's still the problem with the builtin linker),
but only if no hs packages are installed.
- to play with what's already done, you have to remove or comment the
BROKEN markers in lang/ghc/Makefile and meta/haskell-platform/Makefile.
but be aware that you're on your own and you will have to know how to
clean up any mess (including changed plists etc.)
Ciao,
Kili
ps, for anyone who works on hs ports: ian@ was kind to include my
little helper script for hs ports plists into his obscript collection:
