Forwarded from the Arch Haskell list, as I think this is generally noteworthy.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pugs, the one and only Perl 6 in Haskell implementation, was cabalised
and uploaded to hackage.haskell.org today by Audrey and the Perl 6 team.
5 minutes later it landed in AUR, courtesy of cabal2arch :)
 
     http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=17958

This is one of the more visible Haskell applications, and the only Perl 6
implementation we've handy, so worth testing that it builds OK.

You can also get x86_64 binaries from the [haskell] overlay,

    http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Haskell_package_guidelines#Haskell_Overlay

Happy Perl6 hacking!
