> Based on my current experience with Macports and GHC, I'd say the ghc
port needs to be simplified: drop dependency on LLVM - GHC people say it's
not sufficiently debugged,
Please communicate with the MacPorts maintainer of ghc about this, by
email or in the ticket about the ghc update. They will not see your
messages in this ticket.
> drop attempts to manage Haskell packages via Macports - cabal and stack
will remain better at that job anyway. It is trying to do too much, which
IMHO is why its maintainers find it so hard to keep current.
If we did that, we would also have to remove all the ports that have
dependencies on Haskell packages, and all the ports that depend on them,
and so on.
