Cray Elliott a9b774204b Update GHC 7.10.1 expression to RC2 2015-01-26 22:41:27 -08:00
Peter Simons 134d1a80c6 Add a package set for GHC 7.10.1-rc1 and bump GHC HEAD to 7.11.x.
Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/5836.

Peter Simons 20560e667a Remove obsolete, broken, and unnecessary versions of GHC.
These versions have been removed:

 - 6.4.2-binary.nix
 - 6.4.2.nix
 - 6.6.1.nix
 - 6.8.2.nix
 - 6.8.3.nix
 - 6.10.1-binary.nix
 - 6.10.1.nix
 - 6.10.2.nix
 - 6.10.3.nix
 - 6.11.nix
 - 6.12.1-binary.nix
 - 6.12.1.nix
 - 6.12.2.nix
 - 7.0.1.nix
 - 7.0.2.nix
 - 7.0.3.nix
 - 7.2.1.nix
 - 7.4.1.nix
 - 7.6.1.nix
 - 7.6.2.nix
 - 7.8.3-binary.nix

As a rule of thumb, we keep the latest version in every major release. If
someone feels up to the task of fixing versions 6.4.x, 6.6.x, and 6.8.x, then
please don't hesitate to revive those builds.

Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/5630.

Peter Simons 1912736a86 ghc-7.8.4: re-implement "fix build on Darwin" to avoid re-builds on Linux
Originally, I thought that I can commit a "clean" patch -- even if it
triggers re-builds -- because those re-builds were triggered by the
ncurses patch to GHC anyway . That patch had to be reverted, though, so
now I'm rewriting this patch to avoid re-builds on Linux.

What a mess. :-(

Peter Simons df76eb1268 ghc: revert "propagate 'gmp' and 'ncurses' to ensure users can link the 'haskeline' library, etc."
I thought that [1] could be fixed by ensuring that ncurses is available in the
environment (because ghc exports it as a propagateBuildInput), and indeed that
change fixed *some* build failures we've had before. However, the same error
still occurs with other packages, like hledger [2] and Agda [3]. Frankly, I
have no idea why those packages fail and others don't. But clearly the fix was
inadequate, so I'm reverting commit a8076c76.

Peter Simons 7a20d76482 Disable all Haskell builds for Darwin on Hydra.
Hydra generates a GHC closure for Darwin that for no apparent reason
contains an ancient, broken Haddock binary -- probably because of an
impurity in the build system. That bug makes those GHC binaries
unusable: <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/2689>.

Ricardo M. Correia 2204eb9f18 ghc: Add support for grsecurity
In this case, we also need to specify compilation flags to mark stacks as
non-executable, otherwise PaX will not allow ghc or binaries built by ghc
to run.  This is what gentoo-hardened does as well.

Peter Simons cb21683794 ghc: disable parallel building
It sucks, I know, but GHC just doesn't compile reliably when built with
some -j<n> option. :-( We have build errors because of apparent race
conditions all over the place on Hydra. This causes so much trouble for
users that it's not worth keeping this option enabled, IMHO.

Peter Simons e4d841eef4 Re-implement ghcWithPackagesOld as a variant of ghcWithPackages that ignores collisions.
This change is intended to fix <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/1161>
and to address some of the concerns that come up during the discussion of
<d64917ad17>.

Peter Simons 981c287355 ghc: several enhancements to the new "with-packages" wrapper
1) The wrapper erroneously used the ghc-pkg flag "--package-db" instead of
    "--global-package-db". The result was that packages installed locally in
    ~/.ghc and ~/.cabal were invisible to GHC. This has been fixed.

 2) The wrapper now deals gracefully with an empty package set: if no package
    is requested to be included in the wrapped environment, the wrapper just
    installs a pristine GHC.

 3) Correctly configure the "docdir" path returned by ghc-paths.

 4) Added some comments that describe the idea behind our ghc-paths patches and
    gives users same sample shell code that can be used to import our special
    environment variables into the currently running shell, so that programs
    outside of the wrapped environment can use them, too.

Peter Simons f92a5cbfc6 pkgs/development/compilers/ghc/with-packages.nix: add 'ignoreCollisions' parameter
The ghcWithPackage expression now has an argument 'ignoreCollisions' that
allows users to disable the path collision check like so:

  (pkgs.haskellPackages.ghcWithPackages (pkgs: with pkgs; [ haskellPlatform ])).override { ignoreCollisions = true; };

See d64917ad17
for a long and detailed discussion of why these path collisions may occur.

Peter Simons 89c566fcfd pkgs/development/compilers/ghc/with-packages.nix: improve recognition of Haskell packages
Haskell packages -- i.e. packages built by our Cabal builder -- invariably have
the attributes 'pname' and 'version'. We use the absence of these attributes to
recognize non-Haskell packages and filter them from the closed package set
generated by closePropagation. We do this so that the generated Haskell
environment won't contain paths like "/lib/libz.a", which are part of the
closure but have nothing to do with Haskell.

The previous scheme used the attribute 'ghc' to accomplish the same thing, but
unfortunately other packages to contain a 'ghc' attribute, too, like the
old-style ghc-wrapper. Including the ghc-wrapper in this environment is
pointless, obviously. The new approach filters the ghc-wrapper successfully.
2013-11-07 12:14:19 +01:00
