Just to add to this: I'm okay with this, I do it for perl and python
when I can, but this patchseries is just too long to shuffle it all
around for no actual improvement in code.
As the modules grow in lines of code, we should add this to
documentation that at least a first letter should be sorted
alphabetically, though it should not be an absolute requirement for
various reasons.
In my opinion if you search for a package name you will find out the
line and file where it starts, which is enough.

Okay, thanks for spotting it.

I find it time consuming to search for the place in a file the length of
perl.scm, haskell.scm, python.scm to fit in my packages.

I think for haskell this was not 100% sorted, for perl there's almost
A-Z sorting.

It's nice to have, but the more these files grow, the more time you
spend with correcting the commits where the A-Z plea message was
ignored or overlooked.
If all of them were sorted and it would be pointed out in
"Documentation > Contributing" I'd agree, but at the moment I won't fix
this patch series.

Usually for these long files I just do an "M-g g 8" to jump to the
very end.

Could you run these packages through 'guix lint'?  It should warn about
the "A" at the beginning of a synopsis.

While adding ghc packages in the past, I've tried to keep the packages
alphabetically sorted.  I'm not sure whether there's concensus on doing
that.  We have 'guix edit', but for catch-all modules like (gnu
packages haskell) I think it's still nice to have some semblance of
order. We added a plea message at the top of gnu/packages/python.scm;
maybe we should add one to gnu/packages/haskell.scm.  What do others
think?
