@maralorn:maralorn.demaralornYou would probably have had it easier to convince me in this discussion if you had informed me that one of the PRs not being able to merge because the missing cherry-picks mad conflicts more likely was mine.18:01:25

@a-kenji:matrix.orgkenji changed their display name from a-kenji to kenji.10:39:01
@teoc:matrix.orgTeo (he/him)Is there an easy way to create a dev shell where I can use GHC with the llvm backend? Ideally without having to recompile ghc12:25:26
@teoc:matrix.orgTeo (he/him)Oh wait maybe it's fine with stuff just being on the PATH12:27:39
@teoc:matrix.orgTeo (he/him)it spews some warnings about versions but continues anyway12:27:54
@sternenseemann:systemli.orgsterni teo (they/he): (ghc.withPackages.override { useLLVM = true; }) (p: [ … ]) it's even documented :-) 13:26:01
@sternenseemann:systemli.orgsterni though you still have to pass -fllvm that's a misleading name (thanks to me) 13:26:23
@teoc:matrix.orgTeo (he/him)Nice thanks! Yeah it's a bit silly. Hopefully we will have better ways to specify these things soon.13:36:24
@teoc:matrix.orgTeo (he/him)* Nice thanks! Yeah it's a bit silly. Hopefully we will have better ways to specify these things soon (through like the toolchain specification or something).13:37:07

In reply to @teoc:matrix.org

The replaceStdenv stuff already exists, but it won't save you from rebuilding GHC.

@bglgwyng:matrix.orgbglgwyng If a package is not affected by foo-package.override { random = ... }, which means random is not overridden but remains as the one in haskellPackages, what are some things I can try to investigate further 08:53:03
@bglgwyng:matrix.orgbglgwyng The package overrides other than random works well 08:53:22
@bglgwyng:matrix.orgbglgwyng * If a package is not affected by foo-package.override { random = ... }, which means random is not overridden but remains as the one in haskellPackages, what are some things I can try to investigate further? 09:00:44
