7.8 uploads to experimental (pandoc, leksah, new packages)



Hi,

I’m currently rebuilding everything with GHC-7.8; once I can build a
sizeable set of the packages here I’ll upload it to experimental. I’m
currently at 450 packages...

Again, packages that are not in Darcs are the cause of serious slow-down
in such mass-managing of files, so I need some help here.


@Jonas: Could you prepare the packaging of pandoc-1.13.1? Then I can
locally build that and continue working on those that require pandoc.


Also, there are quite a few new packages:

DRBG, auto-update, charsetdetect-ae, cipher-aes128, dynamic-state,
errorcall-eq-instance, gtksourceview3, haddock-api, haddock-library,
network-uri, nonce, oo-prototypes, prettyclass, regex-tdfa-text,
th-expand-syns, th-reify-many, vado, vcsgui, vcswrapper, webkitgtk3,
word-trie, yi-language, yi-rope, ghcjs-dom, ghcjs-codemirror,
webkitgtk3-javascriptcore, jsaddle

I need help with these. If you want to help out, just pick one and
package them as usual. You do not have to upload them, just put them in
Darcs and tell me about them. If you are ready, make sure you target
"experimental" and depend on haskell-devscripts (>= 0.9)

In particular, a number of these new dependencies are for leksah. Leksah
is a large package that repeatedly causes lots of work to me, but I
don’t use it. So unless someone steps up to dedicatedly maintain leksah
and the packages it pulls in, I’m planning to remove leksah. So if you
want that to happen, please start working on its new dependencies.

There are also a number of packages that seem to be unmaintained that
stopped working with 7.8. Some of them are probably easy to patch, but I
still plan to remove them. If you are worried that I’d remove something
that you want, please review the package plan and create patches.

The branch "ghc-7.8" of the package-plan refers to experimental.

Greetings,
Joachim
