Re: DHG event at DebConf 15?

[Kristoffer Rose <kristoffer.rose@gmail.com>]

I want to write a wiki page: "How I started helping DHG from scratch", which documents how I take my workstation (freshly cleaned of *any* Haskell stuff) and brought it up to the state needed for building new debian haskell packages (or, more likely, start finding bugs in debian-cabal and friends). I am having trouble knowing where to start (activate experimental repos?)...

There is the unpack-all.pl script in the package-plan repo. Not sure if
it has bitrotted a bit, but in principle, running that followed by
$ cabal install unpacked/*
should build all of Debian Haskell with cabal.

But I’m not quite sure what problem you are trying to solve :-)
