 maralorn | And honestly I am gonna drop support for pandoc-crossref. 🤣 Probably easy very easy to fix but I haven’t used it in years. | 07:22:08 |

| maralorn | Okay, I fixed everything but the gi-soup breakage. Still unclear to me how we can fix that. | 08:27:40 |
| maralorn | You were right, I accidentally disabled that by commenting out the reflex-packages overrides. | 10:13:17 |
 ners | I'm trying to build a statically linked Haskell executable using pkgsStatic. If I'm understanding release-haskell.nix correctly, this derivation and all its deps should be cached: pkgsStatic.haskell.packages.native-bignum.ghc984.hello
I expect it to pull it from cache, but instead it starts building GHC from source. Am I missing something about how we cache things? | 18:59:15 |
| maralorn | release-haskell.nix applies to haskell-updates. release.nix applies to master. | 19:02:13 |
| maralorn | Does that help?^^ | 19:19:38 |

Does that help?^^ Yes that worked! Thank you. :) | 07:43:40 |

BTW, ghc 9.6 and higher are broken on pkgsStatic: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/275304 More specifically, the issue
is that any Hadrian-built GHC is broken, iirc | 12:40:52 |

 FreeVariable | Is it possible to get ghc 9.10.2 on Nixos unstable? | 01:28:10 |
| FreeVariable | The last packaged versions seems to be 9.8.x | 01:28:47 |
 cdepillabout | GHCs are available as haskell.compiler.ghc910*, and the package sets at haskell.packages.ghc910*.lens (or whatever). Although keep in mind that sometimes things don't work with the non-default compiler. | 02:46:18 |

Although keep in mind that sometimes things don't work with the non-default compiler. Thanks. But how large is th delta ?How many versions I can expect to be available when they are not yet released to the unstable branch? | 06:58:05 |

| maralorn | In reply to @setunset:matrix.org
Thanks. But how large is th delta ?How many versions I can expect to be available when they are not yet released to the unstable branch? I am unsure what you mean. Do you wonder how many less haskell packages build on the non default ghc? Hard to say. | 07:22:35 |
| maralorn | But we have all recent ghc versions packaged including 9.12. | 07:23:33 |
| maralorn | They are all "released" in the sense that they exist on nixos-stable. They just are not yet defaults. | 07:24:42 |
| alexfmpe | a lot of packages build with 9.12 out of nixpkgs
notably, both HLS and reflex-dom do and they have massive dependency footprints | 08:15:49 |
| alexfmpe | also, while the compiler is cached, the package set itself isn't, so the first build will be annoying | 08:16:08 |

It compiles on x86-linux. Anyone seen this before?

 sterni | Looks like https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/23746, but should be fixed in 9.8.4 iirc | 11:05:12 |
