 alexfmpe | error complains about ormulu, maybe disable that for now? | 16:56:19 |
 maralorn | Yes, or at least I have no clue about it. 😂 | 16:56:22 |
 John Wiegley | I'm actually not using ormolu in this flake | 16:56:30 |
| John Wiegley | maybe there's a way to configure HLS not to pull it in... | 16:56:43 |
| alexfmpe | trying: haskell-language-server:+ormolu | 16:56:51 |
| alexfmpe | * trying: haskell-language-server:+ormolu | 16:57:00 |
| alexfmpe | must be a way to toggle the flag | 16:57:16 |
| alexfmpe | dunno if haskell.nix inherits the nixpkgs' utils for cabal overrides | 16:57:45 |
| John Wiegley | I have to run now, but happy to dig into this later in the evening | 16:58:25 |
| alexfmpe | maybe we should rename to "nixpkgs haskell" or so? | 16:58:33 |
| alexfmpe | that said, is there even a haskell.nix channel? | 16:59:06 |

maybe we should rename to "nixpkgs haskell" or so? Not sure that'd help. Especially for newcomers who don't grasp the whole nixpkgs/nix lang/nixos distinction yet. 😂 | 17:00:04 |
| alexfmpe | well the current name is as confusing as can be | 17:00:32 |
| maralorn | In reply to @alexfmpe:matrix.org
that said, is there even a haskell.nix channel? I think there is but not on matrix or something. | 17:00:35 |
| alexfmpe |
"nix haskell", not to be confused with "haskell.nix"
| 17:00:55 |
| maralorn changed the room name to "Haskell in nixpkgs / on nixos" from "Nix Haskell". | 17:01:41 |
| maralorn | I guess it would probably more precise without the on nixos | 17:02:42 |
| maralorn | On the other hand most community channels include nixos in their name | 17:03:50 |
| maralorn changed the room name to "Haskell in nixpkgs" from "Haskell in nixpkgs / on nixos". | 17:04:38 |
| maralorn | Let's try it this way | 17:05:22 |
| maralorn | I guess valuing preciseness over newcomer friendliness is a Haskell trademark... | 17:06:17 |
| maralorn changed the room name to "Haskell in Nixpkgs/NixOS" from "Haskell in nixpkgs". | 17:19:36 |
| John Wiegley | So true, so true... | 17:27:06 |
| John Wiegley | Now I have to find where to report this, thanks for the help and pointers! | 17:27:35 |

 cdepillabout | There's a question on discourse about why the latest version of Haskell packages isn't always used in nixpkgs: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/packaging-prebuilt-haskell-binaries/64031 | 00:33:00 |
| cdepillabout | It seems like no one really knowledgeable about the situation has replied yet. Maybe someone from here would be able to explain better what is going on. | 00:33:36 |
|  loudgolem joined the room. | 02:41:57 |
|  Funky changed their profile picture. | 05:29:12 |

It seems like no one really knowledgeable about the situation has replied yet. Maybe someone from here would be able to explain better what is going on. i think Daniel firth covered the underlying concepts well on the nix full time Podcast mentioned in the thread | 06:05:09 |
| cdepillabout | Ah good to know! I'll have to give that a listen | 07:15:16 |
