Okay it is easy to get into dependency hell with cabal install
without sandboxing. So I suggest either you try to yum install
cabal-dev, or newer cabal-install from my copr repo [1] which has
support for sandboxes.

Okay, I am not sure where the List dependency is coming from.
I managed to cabal install pandoc-citeproc on my F20 machine.
You might want to look through the ghc-pkg check output first
to work out what is broken in your user-installed libs.
Most people now suggest to use sandbox to build projects
anyway to avoid these kind of problems.
Hope that helps,
Jens

Hi Andrew,
I hope you don't mind I cc'ed Fedora Haskell list too
in case anyone else is looking for this. Thanks for your mail.

That's right since pandoc 1.12 the bibtex citeproc support was separated
out into pandoc-citeproc, so there was a slight functional regression
when we moved from 1.11 to 1.12.

A couple of options. (1) There is a Fedora Package Review Request open
for pandoc-citeproc: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1098854
So you could build yourself from the srpm there. Hopefully it will get
reviewed soon and then it will appear in Fedora Updates after that.
(2) Otherwise you could use the cabal-install (or cabal-rpm, which will
install the packaged dependencies for you) to build it locally for yourself:
$ sudo yum install cabal-install
$ cabal update
$ cabal install pandoc-citeproc
If you need more help do ask, I am happy to answer more questions.

Problems packaging ghc-hgettext
by Philip Withnall
Hi all,
I'm trying to package Bustle[1], and so I first need to package
ghc-hgettext and ghc-setlocale as dependencies.
I can generate a ghc-setlocale package[2] easily enough using cabal-rpm,
but when I try to package ghc-hgettext[3], I get:
+ ./Setup build
Building hgettext-0.1.30...
Preprocessing library hgettext-0.1.30...

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lHSsetlocale-0.0.3-ghc7.4.2

That's with my ghc-setlocale package installed:
$ ls -l /usr/lib64/ghc-7.4.2/setlocale-0.0.3/
total 500
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 152134 Jun 28 10:44

libHSsetlocale-0.0.3_p.a
drwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 12 Jun 28 10:47 System
I'm stumped. If I rebuild ghc-hgettext with shared libraries disabled,
it works, but that's not really acceptable. I'm afraid I don't know
enough about the Cabal/rpmbuild/Haskell build and linking process to be
able to diagnose this without spending too much time on it. Hopefully
the answer is obvious to someone else!
Thanks,
Philip
