| 14:58:56 | <mc47> | Solid update regarding my struggle with using stack.yaml: I had `.` in packages, and for some reason it was complaining that it can't find the xmonad library |
| 15:01:55 | <Solid> | ah yeah afaik then it's looking for some kind of src or lib dir |
| 15:03:48 | <mc47> | yeah exactly |
| 15:04:00 | <mc47> | so I need to bump the resolver and add X11-xft-0.3.1 |
| 15:04:14 | <mc47> | (which I'm not gonna do, I was just making sure it works, which it does) |
| 15:05:01 | → | seschwar joins (~seschwar@user/seschwar) |
| 15:07:17 | <mc47> | btw: I stupidly deleted my unpushed changes because I was working in the train and I got confused about the symlinks |
| 15:07:37 | <Solid> | oof |
| 15:08:12 | <mc47[m]> | Oof indeed |

| 16:20:29 | <liskin> | hm, what's looking for src or lib? a '.' in packages just means it looks for *.cabal, I think |
| 16:25:28 | <Solid> | ah probably |
| 16:25:37 | <Solid> | of course we all forgot to change our cabal files |
| 16:25:47 | <Solid> | and cabal still specifies a src directory |
| 16:27:15 | <liskin> | "forgot to change"? Was I meant to change any cabal files too? :-) |
| 16:27:22 | <liskin> | I may be missing a bit of context here I think |
| 16:27:37 | <Solid> | you weren't, but me and mc47[m] certainly did :) |
| 16:27:55 | <Solid> | the context is stack based compiling instead of having a build file |
| 16:28:07 | <Solid> | the natural thing to do seems to be to move xmonad.hs from src to the parent directory |
| 16:28:17 | <Solid> | delete the build file and adjust the stack.yaml |
| 16:28:23 | <Solid> | aaaaand then forget to adjust the cabal file as well |
| 16:28:31 | <liskin> | well more like delete rather than adjust |
| 16:28:46 | <Solid> | okay, or that |
| 16:29:13 | <liskin> | because with the CompileStackGhc compiling, xmonad doesn't expect stack to compile the xmonad binary itself |
| 16:29:23 | <liskin> | perhaps that needs a bit more documentation somewhere |
| 16:29:25 | <liskin> | or code |
| 16:31:21 | <liskin> | if someone wants to use any extra libraries or something, or whatever else they'd need an actual cabal project for, then I think one way to do it that should work is to create a project and then just "import MyXMonad (main)" or something in ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs |
| 16:31:54 | × | geekosaur quits (~geekosaur@xmonad/geekosaur) (Remote host closed the connection) |
| 16:31:56 | <Solid> | having a build file would probably be less work in that situation |
| 16:32:14 | → | geekosaur joins (~geekosaur@xmonad/geekosaur) |
| 16:32:32 | <liskin> | that might well be true, yes |
| 16:33:23 | <liskin> | I now need to leave for beers, but I'd definitely like to discuss this further |
| 16:33:41 | <liskin> | as one of you said recently, if the devs can't get it working right, it's probably not documented well enough |
| 16:34:17 | <Solid> | yeah I think we should read through all of this "how to get me set up" docs in full at one point and fill out the planks |
| 16:34:34 | <Solid> | but for now, have fun with the beers :) |
| 16:34:50 | <Solid> | s/planks/blanks/ |
| 16:35:10 | <Solid> | (unless there are also planks in there, in which case we'd need to fill them out as well :)) |
| 16:35:13 | <liskin> | yeah |
| 16:35:31 | <liskin> | although I do have to say that I did go through those instructions once, quite thoroughly |
| 16:35:46 | <liskin> | as in install-arch-in-a-fresh-vm kind of thoroughly |
| 16:36:31 | <liskin> | so it needs another pair of eyes rather than another read through :-) |
| 16:36:38 | <Solid> | I believe the docs from scratch are pretty decent |
| 16:36:42 | <liskin> | afk now |
| 16:36:43 | <Solid> | but both problems arose in "convert this frankenstein setup into this shiny new thing" situations |
| 16:36:47 | <Solid> | aight |
| 16:36:51 | <Solid> | we'll continue this another day |
