Hi Artem, I think currently the best you could do is to clone primitive's git repo locally and install it from there, using `cd primitive; cabal install --with-ghc=...`.
Note that you can run the test suite without these dependencies. The driver skips the test if a dependency is not found. See also #15137. (I wonder what CI is doing about this, I'm guessing it doesn't install dependencies so some of the tests are not run on CI) Ömer Artem Pelenitsyn <a.pelenit...@gmail.com>, 4 Ağu 2018 Cmt, 20:51 tarihinde şunu yazdı: > > Hello devs, > > Wiki page on testing says that in order to run all tests you have to install > additional packages: > > https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/RunningTests/Running#AdditionalPackages > > and kindly provides a command to do this: > > cabal install --with-compiler=`pwd`/inplace/bin/ghc-stage2 > --package-db=`pwd`/inplace/lib/package.conf.d mtl parallel parsec primitive > QuickCheck random regex-compat syb stm utf8-string vector > > After the af9b744bb one of the packages, primitive, does not build anymore. > At least, its last released version on Hackage.
