@andromeda:tchncs.deandromedaand I want it to be Waylvnd native rather than accessible through wayland satellite or something12:12:52
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromedabut honestlyayland's a pan in the kiester and that could be a later addition12:13:42
@maralorn:maralorn.demaralornI'd say enjoy that you don't have a manager with a deadline and do whatever is most fun/ the greatest learning experience. 😂12:17:11
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromedawait my brain is empty - if on a non-nix distro, I need to have setup.hs do wayland bs. I can otherwise just do it from the derivation 🤦‍♀️12:25:12
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromedaI used cabal2nix to get a derivation and it builds with callPackage but I want to run a pre configure hook. How ought I go about doing that?15:53:25
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromedafound it16:33:16
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromedapreBuild16:33:24
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromeda yesss it builds, finding the wayland headers and generating the code and everything, with both nix build on a Nix system and cabal build in a Kubuntu VM (after imperatively installing deps, ofc) 16:38:12
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromedahowever, cabal build fails when in a development shell on nix - a loss I'm willing to live with for now.16:52:48
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromeda My library builds, finding Wayland on Nix and non-Nix build systems! If anyone wants to take a peek: https://git.mtgmonkey.net/Andromeda/hs-rgfw 17:21:31
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromedatoo bad it can't do much atm17:21:52
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromedaI would be so content for wayland to stop being a pain in the ass21:06:38
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromedalike so content21:06:43
@alexfmpe:matrix.orgalexfmpe iopq: https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/6824 21:14:02
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromedaI need to link the wayland headers at build time so the header library stops freaking out about not seeing things but at the same time dynamic linking has problems on nix :(21:30:52
@andromeda:tchncs.deandromedaI'll just not do wayland fn, it's beyond my ability21:31:11
