 silky | cheers; i'm trying too just waiting on a large rebuild i guess 😅 | 14:03:04 |
 maralorn | Huh, so the th-desugar in haskell-updates is 1.16 | 14:03:58 |
| maralorn | Which does not claim to be compatible with ghc 9.10. | 14:04:17 |
| maralorn | Doesn’t mean it can’t work, but it seems unlikely. | 14:04:38 |
| silky | true good point | 14:05:11 |
| silky | i'm trying with 1.18 now | 14:05:15 |
| silky | trying to see if that gave a different error | 14:05:22 |
| maralorn | So you either need to manually use a newer th-desugar version or an older ghc. Because template-haskell is fix coupled with ghc and and th-sugar is probably tightly coupled with template-haskell (although the later is just a guess.) | 14:05:54 |
| silky | thank you for the help | 14:40:31 |
| silky | i think i got it in the end | 14:40:35 |
| silky | by just bumping a bunch of singleton-related versions | 14:40:43 |
| silky | ah so close | 15:50:57 |
| silky | entered some sadness with ghc-wasm:

| silky | why is it always singletons it seems 😅😅😅😅 | 15:53:01 |

 João Moreira | Any work on making ghc 9.10 default? Or at least vetting ghcPackages that don't build on it? | 15:27:54 |
| maralorn | Yes, the good folks over at stackage are currently curating the Stackage Nightly package set with GHC 9.10. As soon as they release that as Stackage LTS, we will follow that. However I expect this to take probably another half year. | 15:42:50 |
| maralorn | Not, sure what you mean with "vetting". Some people are working on fixing builds for ghc 9.10 and 9.12 in nixpkgs and we have limited test coverage for that. | 15:43:53 |
| João Moreira | In reply to @maralorn:maralorn.de
Not, sure what you mean with "vetting". Some people are working on fixing builds for ghc 9.10 and 9.12 in nixpkgs and we have limited test coverage for that. I meant to veto a package, to mark the package as wontBuild on 9.10 or something like that. | 15:49:32 |
| maralorn | We generally don’t do that. We mark packages as broken when they are broken on the default. We don’t maintain that information per ghc version. | 16:00:38 |
 alexfmpe | Also, a lot of packages already build for 9.10 on the current LTS. Have you run into some of your dependencies not building? If it's just a few it's usually worth overriding locally until it works, then upstreaming those overrides to nixpkgs so you get cached builds etc | 16:36:57 |

| tannerh | Hey! Having trouble with xmonad on nixos: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/system-with-minimal-xmonad-configuration-fails/61126
Can anyone point me in the right direction? | 01:20:25 |
 Alex | Are you sure you want both config and enableConfiguredRecompile?
For that to work properly, you might need to implement your own restart key binding. | 01:57:22 |
