HASKELL TOOLCHAIN SYNCHRONIZED ACROSS STAGING

By RepoJournal · Filed 06:02 UTC on June 18, 2026 · About Arch Linux

Language server and plugin suite hit 2.3.0.0 in extra-staging, closing the version gap that's been fragmenting the Haskell ecosystem.

The haskell-language-server jumped to 2.3.0.0-52 [1], bringing its dependent plugins into alignment. Three critical HLS plugins moved in lockstep: splice-plugin, retrie-plugin, and gadt-plugin all landed at 2.3.0.0-47 [2][3][4]. This coordinated push matters because Haskell developers have been stuck waiting for the ecosystem to catch up - mismatched versions between the server and plugins break editor integration. Meanwhile, haveged drifted into testing at 1.9.23-1 [5], a routine entropy daemon refresh with no blocking concerns. The real story is the Haskell stack finally moving together again.

Action items

→ Monitor haskell-language-server 2.3.0.0-52 through testing cycle archlinux/svntogit-extra [monitor]
→ Verify HLS plugin compatibility once all three reach stable archlinux/svntogit-extra [plan]
