Closed aierl closed 6 years ago

aierl commented 6 years ago

I was following the steps as per https://github.com/GaloisInc/HaLVM/blob/master/HACKING.md (i have cloned the master branch) There was no issue till step 5 configuration

$ git clone https://github.com/GaloisInc/HaLVM
$ git submodule update --init --recursive
$ autoconf
$ ./configure --enable-gmp

at this step the build fails with 

 ERROR: Couldn't find required version of Alex
  ERROR: Couldn't find required version of Cabal
  ERROR: Couldn't find required version of Happy

the following version of alex , happy were installed when performing the step

sudo dnf install ghc cabal-install alex happy hscolour

side note: Also the link to mailing list mentioned in the Hacking.md is not working

It sounds like something's odd with your GHC installation. I can't repeat this under Fedora 26 on Docker. I'll try to get Fedora Server running in a VM and see if I can replicate it.

Also, which link is broken? I must be going blind, because I don't see a link in HACKING.md that points to a mailing list.

Thanks for the reply, I will try with different fedora server on vm and would let you know. The HaLVM mailing list link on the github README. MD (https://github.com/GaloisInc/HaLVM)

  1. How to contact us : pointed to community. http://community.galois.com/mailman/listinfo/halvm-devel which is not reachable. Also I would like to thank contributors for the efforts for HaLVM.

Ah, right. I've updated the README to reflect our move to devel.unikernel.org.

So, it wasn't just you. It turns out that the Haskell packages for Fedora 26 are missing a bunch of dependency information. If you run the following command:

sudo dnf install ghc-random-devel ghc-mtl-devel ghc-zlib-devel ghc-tar-devel ghc-ed25519-devel ghc-base64-bytestring-devel ghc-cryptohash-sha256-devel ghc-base16-bytestring-devel ghc-stm-devel ghc-text-devel ghc-network-devel

It should clear everything up for you. Give it a try, and tell me if it works. I've updated HACKING.md to match.

it works like a charm. Thanks a lot :)
