 maralorn | That’s less complicated than what I had in mind. | 15:27:28 |
 sterni | I think the problem here is figuring out the right installed package identifier. I believe how this is computed is pretty much internal to Cabal | 15:27:35 |
| maralorn | You can most certainly not know it a nix eval time. So you will probably need to do some finding through build inputs. | 15:28:33 |

 bglgwyng | Maybe I'm doing something hacky so I want to convince my self;
did the same thing happen when we tried to override a pakcage with the same version in haskell.packages and different transitive dependencies? | 03:28:54 |
| bglgwyng | yes this worked | 03:41:00 |
|  @aspendowntime:matrix.org removed their profile picture. | 05:46:41 |
| @aspendowntime:matrix.org removed their display name Eden (they/it/she). | 05:47:00 |
| @aspendowntime:matrix.org left the room. | 05:47:41 |
| bglgwyng | Where is pkgsHostTarget passed from?

| sterni | pkgs/stdenv/generic/setup.sh | 09:51:35 |
| sterni | yes this also happens in that case, hence you need to overrideScope | 09:52:08 |
| maralorn | A recent ghc version started embedding links to the ghc error index via terminal control codes. | 14:14:39 |
| maralorn | That doesn’t seem to work in nix logs. | 14:15:07 |
| maralorn | Does anyone know how that can be fixed? | 14:15:23 |
| maralorn | If not maybe we should deactivate/strip it? | 14:15:41 |
| maralorn | Looks like that for me:
<no location info>: warning: [8;;https://errors.haskell.org/messages/GHC-42258GHC-422588;;] [-Wunused-packages]
