Open Source Haskell Package Managers

Aura, a secure, multilingual package manager for Arch Linux. Aura's original purpose is as an AUR helper, in that it automates the process of installing packages from the Arch User Repositories. It is, however, capable of much more. Aura is a package manager for Arch Linux. Its original purpose is as an AUR helper, in that it automates the process of installing packages from the Arch User Repositories. It is, however, capable of much more. Aura doesn't just mimic pacman; it is pacman. All pacman operations and their sub-options are allowed. Some even hold special meaning in Aura as well. -S yields pacman packages and only pacman packages. This agrees with the above. In Aura, the -A operation is introduced for obtaining AUR packages. -A comes with sub-options you're used to (-u, -s, -i, etc.). PKGBUILDs from the AUR can contain anything. It's a user's responsibility to verify the contents of a PKGBUILD before building, but people can make mistakes and overlook details.

Stack is a cross-platform build tool for Haskell projects that simplifies dependency management, project setup, and reproducible builds. It provides curated package sets (Stackage), isolated project environments, and consistent tooling for compiling and testing Haskell applications. Stack streamlines workflows for developers by automating many parts of the Haskell toolchain, making it easier to get started and maintain complex codebases. It supports integration with GHC (Glasgow Haskell Compiler) and Hackage.
