| balodja | dons: could you help me with installing lambdabot? there is a problem in some plugins. for example, eval. lambdabot> run 1+1 Plugin `eval' failed with: IRCRaised Data.ByteString.last: empty ByteString |
| sorear | you need to copy runplugs into . it should be in dist/build/runplugs/runplugs |
| stepcut | balodja: eval uses an external program -- make sure lambdabot can find runplugs |
| sorear | ditto for djinn, unlambda, hoogle, one or two others |
| dons | sorear: no. you just use the ./build script. balodja: are you using ./build? do you have a recent Text.Regex installation? and plugins from darcs. |
| balodja | hm, i'm not using build. trying nice ./Setup.hs configure --bindir=`pwd` --libdir=`pwd`/lib unfortunatly, that's not suitable :( i need --prefix |
| dons | why? you're not supposed to install lambdabot outside its home dir. it _must be installed into `pwd` |
| balodja | sounds earnestly so, after installing trough ./build the problem remains |
| dons | does the 'runplugs' binary exist in the lambdabot directory? does it work, e.g. echo '1+2' | ./runplugs ? |
| balodja | % echo '1+2' | ./runplugs runplugs: Ix{Int}.index: Index (1024) out of range ((0,29)) |
| dons | which version of hs-plugins are you using/ the darcs version? |
| dcoutts | dons: hmm, I think that actually there's a lot to do to really get a superb paper on binary, I wonder if we shouldn't start on that sooner |
| sorear | that sounds like a symptom of hs-plugins' incompatibility with 64-bit computers and/or mismatched hs-plugins/ghc versions or has the incompatibility been fixed? |
| dons | dcoutts: yes. you looking at 'bits between the lambda'? |
| dcoutts | dons: yep, and getting advice from kosmikus |
| dons | ah yes? what are his recommendations? |
| dcoutts | -> #maya |
| sorear | I'd just like to say I stopped writing the ultra-high-speed ppr lib when I realized nobody would actually ever use it. If I was wrong tell me :) |
| kosmikus | hi dons |
| dons | hey kosmikus |
| balodja | dons: hs-plugins is just from up-to-date repository |
| dons | yeah, we're planning the HW assault for this year :-) |
| balodja | and % darcs --version 1.0.9rc1 (release candidate 1) |
| dons | hmm. no. what is the most recent patch in the hs-plugins repo, balodja ? |
| balodja | that's good question for me. i don't actually know :) because i only do 'darcs get http://...' and configure/build/install |
