Haskell (stack build) recipes do not build on MacOS #6607

Closed luispedro closed 5 years ago

luispedro commented 6 years ago

There are a few Haskell packages on bioconda (greping just now, I find my own ngless, as well as cmv, rnalien, and selectsequences).

None of them build on macOS.

They all have the relevant skip flag, so there is no failure, but this is not the optimal situation.

/cc @eggzilla (who I believe is maintaining the other Haskell packages)

@luispedro @eggzilla tried hard to get stack running on OSX, but this seems to be non-trivial. Any help welcome!

eggzilla commented 6 years ago

Hi, @luispedro , nice to see more Haskell developers joining bioconda :-) I am also not statisfied with the current situation. Stack 1.6.1 is currently in pre-release, I will start a new effort on resolving the situation on release of the production version in the next days. If its ok for you I will ping you as soon as I update the recipe on conda-forge.

I forgot to mention that using biocontainers is a possible workaround for MacOs.

luispedro commented 6 years ago

Yes, ping me. My biggest limitation is that I don't have easy access to an OSX system for testing.

@luispedro if you like I thiink @eggzilla would appreciate any feedback and help here :) https://github.com/bioconda/bioconda-recipes/pull/7122

I posted on reddit asking for help from the Haskell community:

@luispedro @eggzilla can we close this issue or should we keep it open?

eggzilla commented 5 years ago

Hi, I think that we discussed on an other thread to solve the problem with static compilation. From my side the issue can be closed.
