| 20:41:30 |
| hellwolf | this didn't work. hmm | 20:41:36 |

| hellwolf | Coming back to this, any reason why I cannot jailbreak cpphs? | 07:43:15 |

Coming back to this, any reason why I cannot jailbreak cpphs? Does it use justStaticExecutables?
Is the problematic dependency conditional?
Is it a boot package? | 07:51:08 |

| hellwolf | does that say anything to your questions, Alex? | 07:51:47 |

does that say anything to your questions, Alex? It says no to Q3, which is a good start. | 07:52:19 |
| hellwolf | good. if it is not obvious from first sight to any of you. I will look into the actual package deeper later. | 07:53:12 |

cpphs = doJailbreak super.cpphs; # old-locale >=1.0.0.2 && <1.1, time <1.13
old-locale and time are conditional dependencies of cpphs on the latest revision in Hackage, so if either of those is unsolvable then that'll be why jailbreaking has no effect. | 07:56:01 |

cpphs = doJailbreak super.cpphs; # old-locale >=1.0.0.2 && <1.1, time <1.13
(The unrevised package description, which your build appears to be using, also has conditional dependencies.)
As an override, you could try using the latest revision, since it widens some bounds. | 07:58:14 |
| hellwolf | I am not entirely following. Looking at https://github.com/hackage-trustees/malcolm-wallace-universe/blob/master/cpphs-1.20.9/cpphs.cabal how is old-locale required, since it is conditional? | 11:27:43 |
 maralorn | hellwolf: Uh, that is a tricky one: The time provided is newer than 1.13 so neither branch of the conditional works and cabal complains about the default one. You can remove the <1.13 on time with a patch (or via sed if you feel dirty enough), that should fix it. | 11:31:23 |
| hellwolf | and jailbreak doesn't work because of (what)? | 11:33:37 |
| maralorn | jailbreak never touches bounds which are behind a conditional. Because e.g. in this case that would completely break the detection which branch should be used. | 11:34:55 |
| hellwolf | hmm that is a flag based condition, though? | 11:36:11 |
| hellwolf | I guess I have missing knowledge about cabal flags/conditionals here. | 11:36:13 |
| maralorn | Every cabal conditional is flag based. You can force them, but generally there is only a default setting and cabal will try all branches to construct a build plan and pick the first that works. | 11:38:06 |
| maralorn | It’s not how one generally would expect this to work, yes. I was also surprised by it. But it’s actually quite smart. | 11:38:56 |
| hellwolf | oh, that's definitely surprising. I don't get the smartness part yet. | 11:46:27 |
| maralorn | You don’t get why it’s smart or you don’t get the specification?^^ | 11:50:50 |
| hellwolf | I don't get why it is smart. | 11:51:04 |
| maralorn | Well in this case the library can demand a compatibility lib (old-locale) based on the available version of the time library. Seems useful to me. | 11:55:31 |
| maralorn | Although I can see why someone would want a less smart/complex build system 😄 | 11:56:02 |
| hellwolf | :D all I want is HLS for 9.12 | 12:01:46 |
| hellwolf | hopefully before xmas | 12:01:48 |
