The Fedora Haskell SIG is pleased to announce the arrival of GHC 7.8 in the
Fedora 22 Rawhide development tree.

- the GHC version is 7.8.4: we are no longer following haskell-platform
strictly,
- over 120 Haskell packages have been updated to their latest versions,
including pandoc-1.13.2.

There are currently still a few issues in Rawhide:
- a few packages have not yet been rebuilt/updated with ghc-7.8.4:
  - errors:  bustle, ghc-ForSyde, ghc-type-level, ghc-parameterized-data
  - new deps needed:  hledger, Agda, leksah, cab
- also on ARMv7 the RTS seems to have some strange problems leading to
crashes which is under investagation: no idris build on armv7: <

Thanks, Jens
