| cdsmith | sorear: I didn't have any trouble. What problems are you referring to? |
| sorear | cdsmith: a cabal-build bot won't install the helpers in the right places, so > won't work cdsmith: also @djinn @hoogle @ft @unlambda @let @check and @scheck |
| cdsmith | sorear: oh, I guess I didn't do the install. I just run lambdabot from the build directory. |
| sorear | cdsmith: still, the helpers need to be in . |
| cdsmith | sorear: All I can say is, at least hoogle and djinn work for me, and I did nothing special. |
| sorear | cdsmith: lucky ;) |
| sjanssen | sorear: what's wrong with the README, other than build isn't executable by default? |
| sorear | sjanssen: the .plugins line is totally wrong - .plugins will make the bot fail (guaranteed), and isn't needed for > sjanssen: also the correct offline command is './lambdabot -e offline' |
| sjanssen | the first block of commands is fine, though |
| sorear | yes. |
| Sgeo | Can I jsut change Config.hs then do sh build ? |
| sjanssen | assuming you've satisfied the deps |
| Sgeo | I satisfied the deps for lb-4.0.1 >.> |
| sjanssen | you're probably missing zlib @hackage zlib |
| lambdabot | http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/zlib |
| action | Sgeo wonders if he should change Url.hs |
| Sgeo | wonders if he should change Url.hs esp. since I'm not quite sure what I'm doing |
| action | Sgeo decides not to bother |
| Sgeo | decides not to bother What's fptools? |
| sorear | you don't want to know ;) |
| Sgeo | Should I leave it as default? @code |
| sorear | but since you asked, it's the predecessor to cabal |
| lambdabot | Maybe you meant: more todo vote |
| Sgeo | -- | Path to the top of $fptools, used by @code |
| sorear | don't touch the value of that name, it's unused |
| sjanssen | it used to be the CVS repository that GHC and bundled libs were stored in |
| Sgeo | ty |
| sorear | also the name of the extremely crufty build system (predecessor to cabal), which ghc is the only remaining user of |
| sjanssen | it's pretty much on the way out, anyway |
| sorear | there is a very obscure bug in ghc that prevents ghc --make from working on the ghc sources; cabal uses ghc --make once that bug is fixed, ghc will be cabalized, and the name fptools will never again be uttered in polite company |
| sjanssen | at least libs are built by Cabal now |
| sorear | yeah but ghc proper is built with the dying embers of fptools |
| Sgeo | Setup.hs: cannot satisfy dependency arrows-any |
