sterni: When I want GHC to set a flag when calling cc during a compilation. Is there an environment variable I can set in my Haskell package derivation? Or is it correct that I can only set that variable during compilation of GHC via CONF_CC_OPTS_STAGE2. It seems kinda fishy to me because I basically only want to affect runtime behavior of the compiler. I don't believe it can be done with env vars | 17:38:26 |
| Artem | I think it's only the flags that @b:chreekat.net: mentioned | 17:39:45 |

It doesn't unless you're compiling C code or you have an unregisterised GHC.
Nixpkgs' cc-wrapper may allow you to add extra options via an environment variable.
I cannot recall what environment variables it reads. | 17:41:18 |
 maralorn | I think I figured it out. | 17:58:41 |
| maralorn | And yes ghc calls cc. For c code and for linking. | 17:58:41 |
| maralorn | Well I guess -optlc might actually do what I want also. | 18:19:06 |
 sterni (he/him) | -optc and friends is right yes | 18:54:28 |
| Alex | Doesn't it call ld for linking? | 19:22:42 |
| maralorn | Well, at least not for the js backend. There emscripten is used for linking iiuc. | 21:34:09 |
 alexfmpe | clearly we should have ghci running natively on browsers instead of compiling to javascript to interpret | 21:40:35 |

| sterni (he/him) | then -optl I guess, didn't read too carefully above | 09:18:05 |

| sterni (he/him) | alexfmpe: okay about the android platform thing… I've realized I just remembering an amjoseph PR and hallucinated it was an actual feature in lib: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/212188 | 23:49:07 |
| alexfmpe | Aaah | 23:50:56 |

 jean-paul. | How do I specify that all of the test suites should be built, but none should be executed? | 12:51:47 |
| jean-paul. | One hack I see is to manually set "checkPhase" so it does nothing and set the other options as you would normally set them to build & run the tests | 12:57:05 |
| maralorn | Yay, staging moved to staging-next. Soon we can work on haskell-updates again. | 17:34:47 |
| alexfmpe | Ah finally | 18:02:57 |

I believe is broken on staging, staging-next and haskell-updates. The first error in the output is:
error: builder for '/nix/store/xwayf8wqkcdxfma8apqhprgih1khk2d5-python3.13-beautifulsoup4-4.13.4.drv' failed with exit code 1;
would someone confirm this for me?
| 02:09:59 |
| Peter Becich | created issue for beautifulsoup: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/412556 | 02:34:15 |

| Peter Becich | Cherry pick beautifulsoup fix to haskell-updates, review please: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/412733 | 18:46:35 |
| Peter Becich | Is there an @ofborg command to add a label? | 18:51:19 |
| maralorn | @peterbecich:matrix.org thanks for the fix. However this breakage only happened because there was an accidental merge of staging into haskell-updates. We decided to resume work on the branch once that staging reaches master. Then we can merge master into haskell-updates. | 20:09:47 |

| sterni (he/him) | We need to resolve eval issues and can look into starting an eval tomorrow or in the next days, depending on how full the x86_64-linux queue is. | 21:49:12 |
