Some kind of info tables are embedded into text making the build
process fail in freshly built ghc-cabal. The generated code reads from
ZCMain_main_info.
OK tb, kili
Mostly mechanical, except for having to run ./boot per
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/21626
Removed the %n patches merged into the release. The ./configure patch
is no longer needed and wouldn't apply due to #21626 above.
OK kili@
Our recipe for rebuilding bootstrap binaries produces binaries prone
to SEGV. The platform has limited memory and was already failing to
build haddocks for ghc.
Consolidated PLIST back into a single file.
ok kili@
all consumers were packaged and installed on amd64 by me; all python2
syntax in consumers appears to have been updated at this point making
it possible to move to the 4.x series.
lang/ghc bits look ok to gnezdo@
ok sthen@ on the rest
Some non-trivial adaptations:
* Remove -Wl,-z,notext from compiler flags
* Backport from ghc HEAD: move debugBelch into IF_DEBUG(linker)
* Move debugBelch into IF_DEBUG(linker) [fixup 3433]
* Undo ghci slowness [fixup 18727]
* Increase open FD limit for test runs to 1024
* Disable haddock on i386 using PFRAG

if a port needs 2.x then set MODPY_VERSION=${MODPY_DEFAULT_VERSION_2}.
This commit doesn't change any versions currently used; it may be that
some ports have MODPY_DEFAULT_VERSION_2 but don't require it, those
should be cleaned up in the course of updating ports where possible.
Python module ports providing py3-* packages should still use
FLAVOR=python3 so that we don't have a mixture of dependencies some
using ${MODPY_FLAVOR} and others not.
main changes are:
- add a new dep on py-requests
- undo the no longer needed iftex.sty workaround
- move MODPY variables to more standard location
- regen plist
Unfortunately py-sphinx changed the suffix from .txt to .rst.txt in the
1.5 series. This means we have to update PLISTs for about 20+ ports as
a result of this version update. Hopefully future updates of py-sphinx
won't be quite as involved.

This allows for cleaning up the Makefile and for at least a chance
to get things like -z notext and -z wxneeded merged upstream for
amd64 *and* i386.
It also removes a -fno-pie hidden in patches/patch-configure.
Looks good to Greg, who also tested it by building xmonad and all
of its dependencies using cabal (in addition to my ordinary build
tests).
If things go well, I'll try to jump to 8.10 (build 8.8 without
committing, build new bootstrappers from that, and then work on
8.10).
While here, make it possible to build the bootstrappers with
PORTS_PRIVSEP enabled (dirty and brittle, but works for me[tm]).
ghc and the hs-packages now simply include the necessary (haskell)
package description files in lib/ghc/package.conf.d and update the
package.cache by running ghc-pkg recache at the end. register and
unregister scripts are no longer needed.
