or use Debian unstable, which ships this version of the platform since
five days already: http://people.debian.org/~nomeata/platform.html



Ok, two disclaimers:

 * We are in the middle of the transition to ghc-7, so a considerable
number of non-platform-packages are not installable via apt-get at the
moment, but of course you can install the using cabal-install. You can
monitor the progress on
http://pkg-haskell.alioth.debian.org/haskell-pkg-graph.pdf – green is
good :-)

 * We only ship it already because the file on
http://code.galois.com/darcs/haskell-platform/haskell-platform.cabal
has already changed earlier, which was linked by
http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/changelog.html so we thought this is
already official and released and we just missed the announcement.

Maybe it would be better if released versions get their own, static
directory again, as it was the case for
http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/2010.1.0.0/haskell-platform.cabal
and
http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/2010.2.0.0/haskell-platform.cabal
and the relationship between the repositories
http://code.haskell.org/haskell-platform/ and
http://code.galois.com/darcs/haskell-platform/ should be explained on
http://trac.haskell.org/haskell-platform/.


Greetings,
Joachim
