 sterni | excited for the pkgsStatic fix though, we probably should add a job of that to our jobset as well, so we can monitor it and also have some binary cache | 02:07:08 |
 cdepillabout | Oh, also, how would you guys feel about adding something like pkgsStatic.haskellPackages.something to our Hydra jobset? This would prove that statically linking Haskell programs is at least minimally working. | 02:07:16 |
| cdepillabout | Oh, haha, I guess we were thinking the exact same thing. | 02:07:25 |
| sterni | I think it is important to make it viable in the first place -- no fun using that feature if you first have to compile GHC | 02:07:47 |
| cdepillabout | Although I think we should try to get someone to volunteer to be a maintainer for it. Possibly @rnhmjoj or @nh2. I imagine fixing it might mean actually fixing the underlying static-linking machinery more than just Haskell-related stuff. | 02:08:32 |

We may have to repeat that in a few days or so -- staging-next is planned to be merged tomorrow Ah, then I guess I should merge in master again tomorrow.
BTW, how do you follow the status of when staging-next will be merged in?

| sterni | well I'm subscribed to the PR again now, I think jon commented it today that that is the plan | 02:14:37 |
| sterni | I think the best source of information is really searching staging next in the pull request view and reading through the discussion | 02:14:57 |
