Hi Matthias,
This is the next installment in my quest to make Hackage Haskell
executables trivial to add to ports. I added a new --openbsd mode to
cabal-bundler program in cabal-extras[1]. I also added a port of this
program to my ever growing stack of patches[2] (hacky as there's no
formal release).
In order to generate MODCABAL_MANIFEST, one needs to have cabal index
available (cabal v2-update) and run cabal-bundler from the package:
% cabal-bundler --openbsd pandoc-2.11.0.2
Glob 0.10.1 0 \
... 119 skipped dependencies
zlib 0.6.2.2 0 \
This output is directly pasted into the Makefile and the rest is fairly
mechanical. Full disclosure: pandoc port that I have was a tiny bit more
involved as I wanted to specify some non-default cabal flags.
I'm still looking for reviews and guidance on submitting this work
starting with cabal.port.mk[3].
Thanks
Greg
