As one profiling test fails very repeatedly on the bordeaux build farm, but
ghc did seem to build successfully on other machines.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-8.10)[arguments]: Don't run the T11627a
profiling test on i686-linux.
Starting with version 3.8, grep emits warning messages when pattern
contain spurious slashes:
grep '\+' /dev/null
grep: warning: stray \ before +
GHC’s testsuite does not expect that and fails.
* gnu/packages/patches/ghc-9.2-grep-warnings.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk: Add it.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-9.2)[native-inputs]: Add patch.
* gnu/packages/patches/ghc-9.2-glibc-2.33-link-order.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Register it.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-9.2)[origin]: Use it.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-9.4): New variable.
(ghc-bootstrap-for-9.4): New variable.
(ghc-alex-bootstrap-for-9.4): New variable.
(ghc-happy-bootstrap-for-9.4): New variable.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-6.0)[arguments]: Pass --enable-src-tree-happy
option; remove --with-hc option because we use the same GHC for everything;
add --with-gcc option to embed absolute file name of GCC.
[native-inputs]: Remove unused python-2.
This applies the substitution added in 48718135e74994e671eaf6dc6b74ac90e1e8a939
also for GHC@8.4. Somehow this problem is not fatal there and went unnoticed.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-8.4)[native-inputs]: Patch the test driver for
Python 3.10 compatibility.
This fixes a test failure introduced in commit
c527b0ce23c5d9228d29c5f90892aa5f05e77347.
* gnu/packages/patches/ghc-testsuite-grep-compat.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-8.6, ghc-8.8, ghc-8.10)[native-inputs]: Patch
the 'ghc-testsuite' input.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-8.4)[inputs]: Use inherited inputs.
[arguments]: Rewrite using g-exps. Adjust to use inherited package
arguments. Use inherited 'unpack-testsuite, 'fix environment phases.
Remove redundant 'fix-references phase.
(ghc-8.8)[arguments]: Adjust phases based on changed inherited phases.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-7)[arguments]: Adjust custom 'unpack-bin
and 'unpack-testsuite-and-fix-bins phases to unpack tarballs directly
from the store.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-7, ghc-8.0, ghc-8.4)[inputs]: Change from
LIBFFI to LIBFFI-SANS-STATIC-TRAMPOLINES.
* gnu/packages/libffi.scm (libffi-sans-static-trampolines): New variable.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-4)[arguments]: Remove #:implicit-inputs?.
In 'bootstrap' phase, pass '-optc-D_GNU_SOURCE=1'. Use
'search-input-file' to locate lib{bfd,iberty}.a, and 'which' for cpp.
Patch 'mk/config.mk.in'. In 'configure' phase, emit "config.cache".
In 'make-boot' phase, replace "CLK_TCK" in 'nHandle.c'.
[native-inputs]: Remove now-implicit inputs; remove GLIBC-2.2.5,
GCC-MESBOOT0, and BINUTILS-MESBOOT. Add GCC-2.95 and BINUTILS-2.33.
Remove input labels.
* gnu/packages/patches/nhc98-c-update.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (nhc98)[source]: Use it.
[arguments]: Remove #:implicit-inputs?.
[native-inputs]: Remove.
This makes the derivation of ghc equivalent to that found in
e55547bf70384691712047912c793c517debd2ec.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-8.8)[native-inputs]: Change GIT to
GIT/FIXED.
(ghc-8.10)[native-inputs]: Change GIT-MINIMAL to GIT-MINIMAL/FIXED.
* gnu/packages/version-control.scm (git/fixed): New variable.
