Haskell packages: multistate-0.8.0.4 broken

andys8 commented 1 year ago

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

I don't exactly know. I only wanted to update my packages as always without changes.

nix-env -irf packages.nix

with

https://github.com/andys8/dotfiles/blob/4af4ac97b589ed4e55ee7cb6fd96950cf5b82e4b/nix/packages.nix

Build log

error: Package ‘multistate-0.8.0.4’ in /nix/store/ppy7bhb52mp9dq71akypl9jn05msg6cp-nixpkgs/nixpkgs/pkgs/development/haskell-modules/hackage-packages.nix:197386 is marked as broken, refusing to evaluate.

       a) To temporarily allow broken packages, you can use an environment variable
          for a single invocation of the nix tools.

            $ export NIXPKGS_ALLOW_BROKEN=1

        Note: For `nix shell`, `nix build`, `nix develop` or any other Nix 2.4+
        (Flake) command, `--impure` must be passed in order to read this
        environment variable.

       b) For `nixos-rebuild` you can set
         { nixpkgs.config.allowBroken = true; }
       in configuration.nix to override this.

       c) For `nix-env`, `nix-build`, `nix-shell` or any other Nix command you can add
         { allowBroken = true; }
       to ~/.config/nixpkgs/config.nix.
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)

Update

Found https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/2819a437f7a96e42c874b7e97702263ba111ca71/pkgs/development/haskell-modules/configuration-hackage2nix/broken.yaml and https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/2819a437f7a96e42c874b7e97702263ba111ca71/pkgs/development/haskell-modules/HACKING.md. Not sure how this is solved in general. Maintainers need to make sure their projects compile for different ghc versions? Or what changed? Or is there a CI job that tells the reason why a package is broken in more detail?

I'm having this issue too. It is failing in all of my configs.

error: Package ‘multistate-0.8.0.4’ in /nix/store/wh4nnz2ga9lpxl406ia1cnsi891xaa4x-source/pkgs/development/haskell-modules/hackage-packages.nix:197386 is marked as broken, refusing to evaluate.

Literally, my entire window manager (Xmonad) depends on this one package.

what happens when I try to build past it using --impure?

Setup: Encountered missing or private dependencies:
hspec >=2 && <2.9

This is interesting. multistate wants hspec to have version < 2.9.gg

https://github.com/lspitzner/multistate/blob/5179cb21787d488e6049ae6e853cb0c101fd04fd/multistate.cabal#L107

And haskell-packages.nix only contains 2.9.7. Together this won't work.

https://github.com/andys8/nixpkgs/blob/a1f6c65bfc8d640738d4683b62a61b91b7c346d6/pkgs/development/haskell-modules/hackage-packages.nix#L149755

There is already a pull request that would allow hspec < 2.10 which would solve the issue.

Literally, my entire window manager (Xmonad) depends on this one package.

@harryprayiv Could you tell me how you could see that xmonad depends on multistate? I tried looking into cabals build plan and it doesn't look like there would be a direct or indirect dependency. Not sure though.

On the other hand brittany depends on multistate.

https://github.com/lspitzner/brittany/blob/e03ab8425bbc5a3171808cee3285480f64d21536/brittany.cabal#L59

It is mentioned in the logs you posted

error: 1 dependencies of derivation '/nix/store/ly5k1hld2grsrqr7gv7gqblzvjgccl1c-brittany-0.14.0.2.drv' failed to build

And to make it worse: I don't think brittany will ever be updated to GHC 9.2. The project is unmaintained and the effort to update is considered a large change.

I was mistaken about the xmonad dependency. Thanks for your help.

Looks like this was fixed in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/208126/commits/439841cc15cdc76523115eca65a10429167ce46b which is included in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/208126.

I'll close this issue, but feel free to leave a message if this doesn't fix your problems and we can reopen.
