Re: Can't build nofib

[Andreas Klebinger]

The nofib master branch has updated bounds. It's just ghcs submodule
that's lagging behind.

I would recommend —allow-newer rather than rebuilding with 9.4. In
retrospect, 9.4 implies base == 4.17, but nofib seems to only allow <
4.17, which would leave 9.4 out.

Thanks.  That is very unfortunate: ./configure does not issue any
complaint.

I upgraded from 9.2 because GHC won't compile with 9.2 any more.  But
now you are saying that nofib won't build with 9.6? So that leaves
9.4 only.

Well I can install 9.4 and rebuild everything.  But really, it would
be good if configure complained if you are using a boot compiler that
won't work.  That's what configure is for!

    From the error message it looks like you’re using ghc-9.6(and
    base 4.18) while nofib requires base < 4.17.
    I’d say as a temporary workaround you can likely run your
    invocation additionally with —allow-newer, and hope that doesn’t
    break. Otherwise you could downgrade to 9.4 or bump the version
    manually in the cabal file of nofib?

    Friends

    With a clean HEAD I can't build nofib.  See below.  What should
    I do?

    Thanks

    (cd nofib; cabal v2-run -- nofib-run
    --compiler=`pwd`/../_build/stage1/bin/ghc --output=`date -I`)
