[Haskell-cafe] ANN: stack-1.0.2

[Emanuel Borsboom]

New version released of Stack, a build tool.

See haskellstack.org for installation and upgrade instructions.

Release notes:

   - Arch Linux: Stack has been adopted into the official community
   repository <https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/stack/>,
