maralorn | * Sadly requirements put upon us by the nixos release process are increasingly in tension with the high velocity rollout bleeding edge users expect. | 15:54:39 |
maralorn | And yes of course, I can certainly ping you when the manual HLS build plan resolution needs to happen. Took me about half a day last time.^^ | 15:56:11 |
MangoIV | HLS yes, GHC no | 15:56:47 |
MangoIV | Please do. | 15:57:04 |
maralorn | Well, I guess the timing is pretty bad this time. | 15:57:28 |
maralorn | We just made a hackage bump a few days ago. | 15:57:46 |
maralorn | But I guess we can just do another right now. | 15:57:53 |
maralorn | Fixing HLS on all ghc versions besides 9.14 will then be the easier thing. | 15:58:25 |
MangoIV | I want the debugger | 15:58:41 |
MangoIV | That’s the main thing | 15:58:46 |
MangoIV | And HLS also has some nice bug fixes in it | 15:58:57 |
maralorn | Yeah, sure. | 15:59:06 |
maralorn | But I realise my estimate won’t hold. | 15:59:30 |
maralorn | HLS doesn’t even have 9.14 support yet: https://haskell-language-server.readthedocs.io/en/stable/support/ghc-version-support.html | 15:59:45 |
MangoIV | As I said if anything crops up that you need someone to churn through, please ping me. | 15:59:48 |
MangoIV | I’ll be happy to help | 15:59:52 |
maralorn | Or are you interested in both of them independently?^^ | 16:00:15 |
MangoIV | Jup if ghc 9.14 releases we’ll probably get an estimate from them right | 16:00:21 |
MangoIV | Independently | 16:00:28 |
MangoIV | :P | 16:00:32 |
MangoIV | HLS 2.12 will probably be easier right | 16:00:39 |
maralorn | Okay | 16:00:39 |
maralorn | Yes | 16:00:49 |
maralorn | Most hls updates need next to no intervention actually, now that I think about it. The annoying thing is mainly to keep HLS building while upgrading stackage because that breaks the aforementioned manually fixed build plans. | 16:02:30 |
MangoIV | Why do you not distribute HLS bindists btw? | 16:04:42 |
MangoIV | Wouldn’t that be much easier | 16:04:48 |
MangoIV | I am already careful to split the package set for tooling from the one for development anyway | 16:06:20 |
MangoIV | There’s no reason for me to share them | 16:06:27 |
MangoIV | Nobody actually uses hls as a library | 16:06:37 |
MangoIV | I guess it’s a fun exercise to package it but it seems like so much work to do it for 500 compilers-pckset permutations a year | 16:07:19 |
