Marc Jakobi | Yep, no matter how I try to override or jailbreak packages, I can't seem escape dependency hell if I use another ghc version. | 15:13:23 |
teo (they/he) | Are you able to reproduce this outside of nix? Might be good to open a GHC ticket if you can confirm it's a GHC issue | 15:31:08 |
teo (they/he) | Oh you already said you couldn't reproduce it outside of nix builds | 15:34:38 |
sterni | teo (they/he): I mean what you could put on your GHC review pile is my never reviewed MR :p https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/13932 | 16:30:06 |
teo (they/he) | Will do! Feel free to tag me in the future too. It's a real shame that that slipped through the cracks | 16:31:20 |
teo (they/he) | I hadn't realized you were already trying to build a stage2 compiler for these configurations. I know that isn't supported in hadrian in general and that's being fixed in https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/11444. But maybe it would be supported in this case and something is just going wrong with this flag. I'll look into it and see if there's an easy fix | 16:33:24 |
sterni | I was convinced it worked, but when I checked the log I saw that only ghc the library is built in _build/stage1/compiler just before it finishes. Checking ghc --info revealed that it's indeed just Stage1 :( | 16:48:18 |
teo (they/he) | Ah annoying! | 16:56:45 |
oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | Is it possible to ignore specific testcases when packaging a Haskell package, instead of disabling all the tests with dontCheck? With overrideCabal? | 19:03:10 |
oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | Found a solution, modify testFlags through overrideCabal | 21:09:34 |

Marc Jakobi | I think I've narrowed the high memory consumption down to the use of inline-python's marshalling functions (fromPy, ...). Will investigate further... | 06:59:22 |
Marc Jakobi | It's not inline-python either. But I can work around it by disabling library profiling, which probably explains why I wasn't able to reproduce it outside of nix. | 09:48:07 |

| @fargate-official:matrix.org left the room. | 12:45:33 |
Marc Jakobi | It's a combination of library profiling + template haskell in large modules (500 LOC). Please don't ask me why we have modules with ~500 LOC 🙈 | 13:39:15 |
magic_rb | 500 loc is not that much? Id think | 13:39:53 |
