Calling all developers who have an interest in Hare and @fedora / @centos!

I've been prepping the language for inclusion into Fedora, but I would like some feedback on if things are truly working.

If you have any cycles to spare, I would really appreciate any testing of the packages. TIA!

@omenos Tested on a fresh Fedora 38. I had a similar experience to @lemmus. After installing hare, I tried building a sample. Hare complained about missing harec. Installed harec, which complained about missing qbe. Installed qbe and $$.

I assumed that the hare package would install the additional dependencies.

Great to see the efforts to getting hare packaged for various free OS/distributions! Happy to help with further testing.

@lihis @matsuzine Update postponed to tomorrow - updated my development system from #RHEL 8 to RHEL 9 so I could use newer packaging features and made some mistakes along the way 😅 All good now, but it's 4am... 😴

@lihis @matsuzine @lemmus Update posted, give it a spin when you have some spare cycles!

Alright, my #harelang update for #fedora is posted! Either run a #DNF upgrade or install #hare, hare-bin, and/or hare-src. The dependency chain has been fixed as follows: - qbe: (none) - harec: qbe - hare: hare-bin - hare-bin: hare, harec, ~hare-src - hare-src: (none) The thought behind this is to allow folks who want to work in a stdlib-less environment can opt out of installing the stdlib in the first place (--setopt install_weak_deps=False).

now I was able to compile the "Hello World" example by just installing the hare -package on F39 👍
