<typetetris> Is there a way to fix broken haskell packages, without them being corrected on hackage?

2018-08-10

<dhess> Haskell is pretty broken at the moment as well because of a new cabal2nix update.

2018-08-02

<guibou> I have a hackage package with some non-haskell dependencies. Hence the automatically imported package in nixpkgs is broken. Should I hack nixpkgs to add the depency (in `haskell-modules/configuration-nix.nix`) or should I hijack the `extra-libraries` flag of my package's cabal?

<mpickering> Haskell on mac is completely broken atm I think
<arahael> What's the release process like - you mentioned that nix somehow managed to get into a broken state for haskell - no real CI system?

<matrium> hi, it seems like ghcjs is broken when compiling packages with primitive-0.6.4.0. Hence I'm trying to override the the primitive package to 0.6.4.0, following the instructions from Gabriel Gonzalez' nix-haskell tutorial. But I'm just getting the error "builder for '/nix/store/jjab8qnhfams3ws0f00i7kzb5xq624xd-primitive-0.6.3.0.drv' failed with exit code 1" and can't trace down the root

<nh2[m]> rotaerk: one can give `broken = true; ` in a haskell package, I assume that's what's happening for Elm

<nick_l> infinisil: Haskell has had a long history of building broken IDEs.
<{^_^}> https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/34447 (by Infinisil, closed): haskell-ide-engine broken
<nick_l> OK, so it's not Haskell that's broken on NixOS, it's just hie-nix.

<lo_mlatu_> So pandoc-crossref and pandoc2_1_3 is broken now...anyone has some experience to fix broken haskell Packages?

2018-04-24

<bgamari> Sonarpulse, is it just me or is Haskell cross-compilation broken on master?

2018-04-08

<bbsl> Im fairly new to nix/nixos and Iv made a made a haskell project using nix-shell to develop and nix-build to build. It was working fine last time I used it but now it seemes to have broken Im getting this error: https://pastebin.com/mDB4aiRH anyone have any idea what it is and how to fix it?

<jluttine> haskell package ghc-mod has been broken for quite some time in unstable

2018-03-06

<vaibhavsagar> is every package that depends on haskell-src-meta broken?

2018-02-18

<simpson> hask_bee_3: Sure, and many Haskell packages are broken because their version specifications are overly-restrictive. Happens.

2018-01-30

<infinisil> Nooo, why is haskell-ide-engine marked as broken in master :(

2018-01-28

<boomshroom> simpson: Probably. I want to write a compiler for a haskell-like language. I've already made something that mostly works in Rust, but the parser is broken and the type checker was incredibly difficult to write and unreadable.

2018-01-16

<MP2E> hmm, looks like our Idris package is broken (on nixpkgs master and nixos-unstable), it can't find Prelude. Need to bisect but I'm guessing this is related to the haskell split packages change

<cbarrett> what's the best way to report a broken haskell package?

<samae> Where do I report broken haskell packages on nixos?

2017-09-14

<sphalerite> Will using stack (the haskell package manager) like on imperative OSes work fine? I need to get Agda working and the nix package is apparently broken

2017-09-13

<sphalerite> I don't work with haskell much and when I do it's on the stable nixpkgs branch so I don't actually know much about what's going on but there has been a fair bit of chat about it being broken in the past week or so as I said

2017-08-25

<freeman42y> I just find it so hard to believe that the Haskell distribution is actually broken

<Turion> Hi, I haven't installed nixos yet, but I'm thinking about it. I have a couple of questions: 1. How do different versions of the same package work in nixos? E.g. having python 2 and python 3 installed parallelly, or not using the same version as in the main repository. 2. How is Haskell integrated in nixos? Can I install Haskell packages system wide in a sane way using nix? (I.e. dependencies aren't broken, or packages rebuilt automaticall

<Profpatsch> Something’s horribly broken with haskell executables.

2017-03-03

<magnetophon> ie haskell pkgs being marked broken

2017-03-01

<tnks> so if anyone noticed me chirping about the Hydra cache being broken for Haskell packages, I think I figured out my problem, which one could argue was user error/misunderstanding.

2017-02-18

<ibrahims> i guess it's about the latest update where some haskell packages got broken

2017-01-13

<simpson> It's too bad that Haskell packages don't come with tests more often. Then we could rely on the test results to indicate whether a package is broken.

2017-01-07

<seagreen> Anybody using neovim for haskell development? If so what plugins are you using? I was using eagletmt's ghcmod plugin which worked great, but has been broken now for a couple weeks.

2017-01-02

<kriztw> Hey, I am having trouble building a local haskell project on NixOS, I keep getting "Package ‘cabal-0.0.0.0’ in '...' is marked as broken, refusing to evaluate.". cabal2nix also keeps writing Cabal instead of cabal, which should I use?
