| 01:11:53 | <brttmsn> | anyone here know why on a fresh install of xmonad and xmobar i keep getting the error of hGetContents: invalid argument (invalid byte sequence) |
| 01:13:46 | × | kelnoky quits (~shao@ip1f1285ec.dynamic.kabel-deutschland.de) (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) |
| 01:25:31 | <Liskni_si> | brttmsn: most likely because you're not using the xmobar pipe anywhere |
| 01:25:50 | <brttmsn> | im using the same config ive always used and its always worked before |
| 01:26:24 | <Liskni_si> | oh, "invalid byte sequence" is something else than I thought, sorry |
| 01:26:31 | Liskni_si | is tired |
| 01:26:47 | <brttmsn> | its cool. I just dont understand why im getting invalid byte sequence |
| 01:27:11 | <Liskni_si> | my next tip is something with locales |
| 01:27:45 | <brttmsn> | wait, i remember my tty kicking something back about my LANG not being set |
| 01:27:49 | <brttmsn> | could that affect it? |
| 01:27:53 | <Liskni_si> | could be related |
| 01:28:03 | <Liskni_si> | maybe you're using some locale that wasn't generated using locale-gen or something |
| 01:28:26 | <Liskni_si> | I don't really know much about this since I'm using a traditional oldschool distro that doesn't let me fuck this up |
| 01:29:03 | <Liskni_si> | https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/locale |
| 01:29:06 | <Liskni_si> | I'd look here |
| 01:29:40 | <brttmsn> | yeah i just corrected my locale and reran the command to generate it |
| 01:29:45 | <brttmsn> | still getting the error |
| 01:30:09 | <brttmsn> | xmobar: /home/brtt/.config/xmobar/xmobarrc: hGetContents: invalid argument (invalid byte sequence) |
| 01:30:15 | <brttmsn> | that's the exact error |
| 01:30:39 | <Liskni_si> | oh, you're getting the error while reading the config, not while reading from the pipe |
| 01:30:55 | <Liskni_si> | then maybe you just have some invalid byte sequence in the config :-) |
| 01:31:01 | <brttmsn> | english? |
| 01:31:47 | <Liskni_si> | what's your locale? |
| 01:31:56 | <Liskni_si> | (LANG, or LC_ALL, or whatever) |
| 01:32:11 | <brttmsn> | LANG=en_US.UTF-8 |
| 01:34:17 | <brttmsn> | should i try rebooting now that i fixed that and see if that works? |
| 01:34:54 | <Liskni_si> | if you had different LANG before, then logoff and login again might help, yeah |

| 12:51:27 | → | dxld joins (~dxld@rush.pub.dxld.at) |
| 13:00:00 | <geekosaur> | we do need to revise the build script examples, since cabal 3.x the default is new-build |
| 13:00:25 | <geekosaur> | and old-build is deprecated. but our cabal example script requires old-build and assumes it is default |
| 13:01:40 | <geekosaur> | I should say v1-build |
| 13:02:00 | <Solid> | there is a `build-with-cabal-new.sh' |
| 13:02:16 | <geekosaur> | right, point is that needs to be the default cabal workflow now |
| 13:02:30 | <Solid> | ah I see |
| 13:02:33 | <geekosaur> | it's not "new" as of cabal 3.x (cabal 3.4 about to come out) |
| 13:03:23 | <geekosaur> | so some of our build script issues are people trying to use the cabal v1 script with cabal 3, which won't work |
| 13:04:10 | <geekosaur> | and if any examples use a sandbox, those are being removed in cabal 3.4 |
| 13:04:59 | <Liskni_si> | do we have any build script examples? |
| 13:05:13 | <geekosaur> | xmonad-testing repo |
| 13:05:17 | <Liskni_si> | oh :-/ |
| 13:05:19 | <Solid> | yeah there |
| 13:06:04 | <Liskni_si> | would be awesome if someone who actually uses cabal did that |
| 13:06:09 | <Liskni_si> | like, for example, peti |
| 13:06:21 | <Liskni_si> | to make himself useful for once |
| 13:07:06 | <Solid> | maybe if you delete the file, he'll revert and update it :> |
| 13:08:24 | <geekosaur> | I will be reinstalling next weekend on a new(ish) machine and intend to use cabal workflow; maybe I can do it then |
| 13:08:47 | → | kelnoky joins (~shao@ip1f1285ec.dynamic.kabel-deutschland.de) |
| 13:08:54 | <Solid> | that sounds much better :) |
| 13:11:19 | <geekosaur> | anyway specifically what you get with cabal v1 commands used with cabal 3 is core modules being "missing" which sounds like that "bug" last night |
| 13:12:12 | <geekosaur> | so I think that's what they did and that's why I bring this up. we're advertising old instructions that fail in bad ways |
| 13:13:09 | <Liskni_si> | yeah there is an awful lot of content that it outdated, all over the place |
| 13:13:12 | <geekosaur> | (this may be partly cabal's fault for not having enough of a difference between v1 and v2 workflows such that you get "weird" ghc errors rather than deprecation errors) |
| 13:14:09 | <Liskni_si> | and with my current pace, I don't think I'll ever get to actually fixing any docs or anything :-( |
| 13:15:25 | <geekosaur> | I have to rework my local setup anyway because I don't know how long hvr's repos will continue to exist, ghcup has more or less replaced them |
| 13:16:11 | <geekosaur> | but I have a decent amount of local stuff that uses now obsolete cabal workflows including one sandbox that I need to make go away :/ |
| 13:17:43 | <geekosaur> | but I'm not getting much of anything done today, I'm set up in a waiting room |

| 20:41:14 | <Solid> | Liskni_si: I think #450 at this point is acceptable and probably doesn't need its own module anymore; what do you think? |
| 20:41:56 | <Liskni_si> | Solid: the spacing in that PR is about as random as it was when I first saw it |
| 20:42:09 | <Liskni_si> | and I really don't think it's my browser's cache's fault :-/ |
| 20:42:27 | <Solid> | spacing? |
| 20:42:37 | <Liskni_si> | both vertical and horizontal :-) |
| 20:42:41 | <Solid> | :) |
| 20:42:46 | <Liskni_si> | (missing spaces and newlines) |
| 20:42:53 | <Solid> | maybe I've been staring at it for too long |
| 20:43:10 | <Liskni_si> | on the other hand there are some docs that I haven't seen before |
| 20:43:45 | <Solid> | oh yes now that you mention it I see spaces missing all over the place |
| 20:44:05 | <Liskni_si> | btw the motivation/idea of the PR seems similar to https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib/pull/121 |
| 20:44:18 | <Solid> | and they always manage to add trailing spaces again; they even added new ones after I send them a patch to remove the old ones ._. |
| 20:44:58 | <Solid> | oh you're right |
| 20:45:20 | <geekosaur> | yeh, the spacing in there is oddly inconsistent |
| 20:51:33 | <Liskni_si> | other than that it seems nice though |
| 20:51:46 | <Liskni_si> | I'll add a few comments |
| 20:54:33 | <Liskni_si> | I still feel that it should go into its own module though |
