Fair enough! I have no real issues with the current name.

@george.fst There are few problems with the naming convention:

  • I had haskell-language-server-bin AUR package deleted as a duplicate, because the name didn't indicate static build. haskell-language-server-static appears to be fine. So I guess Archlinux Package Maintainers prefer -static for static builds, at least in the haskell world.
  • There's haskell-fourmolu in extra repository so I followed the naming convention. fourmolu is a tool, not a library so it shouldn't be prefixed with haskell - I agree here.

Thanks for the bindists change heads-up.

Hi. Fourmolu maintainer here. Thanks for creating this package. I'd been meaning to do it myself for a while, since the main Arch Haskell packages tend to lag too far behind.

A few notes:

  • Shouldn't this end with -bin to match the usual Arch conventions? I think fourmolu-bin would do as the name. It's not like there are non-Haskell "Fourmolu"s.
  • The bindists will soon be fully static. Worth keeping an eye on that and removing dependencies here when the time comes.
