The mystery build failure was caused by having the same instance as an
orphan and imported from ref-tf 0.5 (why ever that doesn't warrant a
logged error message…). The solution for this is
https://github.com/haskell-nix/hnix/pull/918, which sadly doesn't apply
cleanly on the hnix 0.12.0.1 tarball. Therefore I've backported the
patch until hnix hopefully gets a new hackage release soon.
Introduces a script that can be used to update the Nix expressions for
the Haskell package set. In service of that, also
- introduces cabal2nix-latest, which pins the hackage2nix version used
- changes all-cabal-hashes to use fetchFromGitHub
- adds update-hackage.sh & update-cabal2nix-latest.sh & update-stackage.sh maintainer scripts
No idea why essence-of-live-coding-warp constrains on >= 0.2.5, but if
it breaks something jailbreaking this then it's on them for not
following PVP, I guess.
* Enable exactly one backend (Native seems like the safest choice, but
GMP also seems sane, interested to hear opinions on this!)
* Apply patch which fixes a type mismatch issue between Natural.hs and
Natural.hs-boot.
An upper bound on vector-builder was introduced which includes 0.3.8,
but excludes 0.3.8.1. I don't know why, but the changes between 0.3.8
and 0.3.8.1 look harmless enough to ignore. Possibly the
hgeometry-combinatorial maintainer operated under the assumption that
the author of vector-builder would always use version numbers which only
had 3 components.
The patch I proposed yesterday and vendored in here as a precautionary
measure in case I'd have to amend it in order for it to got merged, has
been accepted without changes.
Thus we can remove the patch file from the tree and just use fetchpatch.
Requires a jailbreak currently because the hackage version bounds are
somewhat outdated. Also regenerate the package set, so the next hydra
evaluation picks up on this.
pandoc 2.12 changed and removed a few exports gitit used. I procured a
patch which fixes those without any refactoring by vendoring in the
removed function from pandoc which is no problem as they are both
available under the GPL 2.0.
