Arch Linux/6.12 Upgrade

When GHC 6.12 comes out, several things will have to change in the Arch binary repositories, and in most Haskell PKGBUILDs.

The following are required to be dealt with.

Smaller core set

Arch supports the Haskell Platform spec in binary form. GHC 6.12 comes with a smaller set of libraries built in than 6.10.4 did, so for those that are no longer shipped with ghc, we need to create binary packages in [extra]. That is, for (those in italics are already moved):

• haskell-xhtml
• haskell-regex-base
• haskell-regex-compat
• [1]
• haskell-quickcheck
• haskell-parsec
• haskell-parallel
• haskell-packedstring
• haskell-network
• haskell-mtl
• haskell-integer ?? (is this a real package?)
• haskell-hunit
• haskell-html
• haskell-haskell-src
