Hello,

I have recently started working on a port for the SimpleX Chat CLI 
client [1] and encountered an issue. The software is not available in 
the Haskell package repository [2], which poses a significant challenge 
since the cabal-module(5) used for Haskell ports relies on Hackage.

My question is: Is there a way to create a port for software written in 
Haskell that is not available in the Haskell package repository?

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,
David.
