Hi all, I've recently requested to join pkg-haskell, Joachim Breitner kindly approved my request (thank you!) and asked to write to that mailing list to introduce myself. My name is Lev Lamberov, currently I am a non-uploading DD, but I plan to do a kind of "privilege escalation" later. Currently I maintain (via sponsors) only two packages in Debian: mdp (source package is mdp-src) and swi-prolog (adopted it). I learned a bit of Haskell in 2013, but had no chance to deepen my knowledge. Hope, participation in DHG will help with that. Mainly I'm interested in xmonad (which I use exclusively since 2013), and I'd like to see more xmonad related packages in Debian (especially, xmonad-extra). I've went through DHG page in Debian wiki and prepared my first Haskell-Debian package, xmonad-wallpaper (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-wallpaper), which is rather trivial, but helped me to study DHG process. And I already have several questions. 1. I'm getting errors while running test-packages.pl, even without adding my package to packages.txt. So, should I just edit the txt-file and commit in this situation? 2. As I understand I just have to push debian/ of my package to DHG_packages with UNRELEASED and ask for a sponsor, right? Regards, Lev Lamberov
