uuagc

[Joachim Breitner <nomeata@debian.org>]

Hi,

I just looked at adopting uuagc. For that, I upgraded uulib (no problem)
and tried to build the newest uuagc package on hackage. It failed at
this point:

[18 of 45] Compiling RhsCheck         ( src/RhsCheck.hs, dist-ghc/build/uuagc/uuagc-tmp/RhsCheck.o )

src/RhsCheck.hs:29:67:
    Couldn't match expected type `[Fixity]'
                with actual type `Maybe [Fixity]'
    In the `fixities' field of a record
    In the expression:
      defaultParseMode
        {parseFilename = file pos, ignoreLanguagePragmas = False,
         extensions = exts, ignoreLinePragmas = False, fixities = bf}
    In an equation for `mode':
        mode
          = defaultParseMode
              {parseFilename = file pos, ignoreLanguagePragmas = False,
               extensions = exts, ignoreLinePragmas = False, fixities = bf}
make: *** [build-ghc-stamp] Fehler 1

which, if I read
http://www.mail-archive.com/haskell-cafe@haskell.org/msg90219.html
correctly, means that uuagc requires the latest haskell-src-exts to
build. Therefore I propose to update that and look at uuagc after we
have migrated the current packages to wheezy.

The packaging in Darcs is incomplete, e.g. the binaries actually need
tobe installed.

Greetings,
Joachim
