[C2hs] Request to C2HS users

[Manuel M T Chakravarty]

Hi Ian,

We haven’t build the cuda package in a CI environment, but Ryan Newton has Accelerate in on a CI server.

Ryan, are you building with the CUDA backend?

Ian, I’m not sure what you mean by CUDA version 6. I believe the latest CUDA release from NVIDIA is 5.5.

Cheers,
Manuel

I've not managed to build it on my desktop machine, but that's mostly due to not having an NVIDIA card and to being on Arch Linux, where the current CUDA install is version 6 instead of 5...  This C2HS regression suite idea has already turned out to be useful, catching a couple of silly little bugs I'd introduced, and I'd really like to include as many packages as possible, and to have it run as a CI test.

I slightly broke things in the last release and only found out about it when people started reporting regressions when trying to build packages that use C2HS.  The number of moving parts involved make it difficult to write a test suite with full coverage, so the best approach seems to be to make a list of packages and make sure that these all build before doing a release.
