HIE build issues (macOS)

[awave1]

Hi,

I'm getting some build errors (again) on macOS 10.15.3 (19D76).

Here's my log output for stack ./install.hs hie-8.6.5 --verbose:

• https://gist.github.com/d8fd3fe5c58007baaebf74a29df3897a

I tried re-building hie using stack clean --full and then stack ./install.hs hie-8.6.5, but still get the same error.

It seems the build fails because of this:

hie-bios          > <command line>: can't load .so/.DLL for: libargp.dylib (dlopen(libargp.dylib, 5): image not found)

I installed argp-stanalone and added -largp to LDFLAGS, unfortunately that did not help.

Also, note that building a simple project with stack works fine, e.g.

stack new temp-project --resolver lts-14.27 && cd temp-project && stack build

Any ideas why it would be failing?

As a start I would recommend using the same GHC as is installed by stack.

So something like stack setup 8.8.2, then use the GHC from the mac equivalent of ~/.stack/programs/x86_64-linux/ghc-tinfo6-8.8.2 which I get under Debian.

[mouse07410]

Is there a difference between stack setup 8.8.2 and ghcup install 8.8.2?

I'm trying to avoid keeping extraneous copies of GHC if at all possible, as reach of them takes an insane amount of disk space. And I need to have GHC available to Cabal, in addition to Stack.

Also, on a fresh install on a machine re-imaged to MacOS Catalina (again, GHC 8.6.5 and 8.8.2 were installed by ghcup), HIE installation stumbled through (after a few unsuccessful attempts) for both compilers via Stack, but only for 8.6.5 via Cabal.

[jneira]

Other option could be download GHC with stack and put them on $PATH to make them visible for cabal (i use that way in my windows systems)

Anyway i am setting up a azure ci job using cabal and ghc on macos 10.14, installing them with homebrew, to see if i can reproduce the error.

[mouse07410]

Here's what I tried:

$ ghcup set 8.8.2
Setting GHC to 8.8.2
Done
$ stack setup 8.8.2
Stack has not been tested with GHC versions above 8.6, and using 8.8.2, this may fail
Stack has not been tested with Cabal versions above 2.4, but version 3.0.1.0 was found, this may fail
stack will use the GHC on your PATH
For more information on paths, see 'stack path' and 'stack exec env'
To use this GHC and packages outside of a project, consider using:
stack ghc, stack ghci, stack runghc, or stack exec

Ok, the install.hs script is using another stack.yaml file: ./install/shake.yaml and it is using ghc-8.6.5. Maybe stack is not aware of your ghc-8.6.5 installation? You can try change the resolver in ./install/shake.yaml to match the one in ./stack.yaml and use ghc-8.2.2 for both, or maybe run a stack setup 8.6.5 would fix stack install.hs

[mouse07410]

I'll have some projects using GHC-8.6.5, and some - using GCH-8.8.2. If I don't need two HIE builds to support them both - I'll happily use hie-8.6.5.

Changed everything to resolver: lts-15.0. Same error:

Reverted to lts-14.11:

Mmm, ok, maybe building the script can give us more clues about the cause, cd ./install && stack build --stack-yaml shake.yaml gives you more info?

I've hit your initial error in azure ci using cabal-hie-install :

[14 of 40] Compiling Haddock.Convert  ( src/Haddock/Convert.hs, dist/build/Haddock/Convert.o )

cabal: Failed to build haddock-api-2.23.0 (which is required by
exe:hie-wrapper from haskell-ide-engine-1.1 and exe:hie from
haskell-ide-engine-1.1). See the build log above for details.

With stack the error in your system is building the script itself (before it can start to build hie).
However in ci stack install.hs latest is running succesfully: https://dev.azure.com/jneira/haskell-ide-engine/_build/results?buildId=645&view=logs&j=2c44781e-d7e7-561e-1c4f-c40434a79774&t=a65fc4e0-0c8c-5085-de03-8ce1269dc88f

[jneira]

To fix the installation with cabal, try add to cabal.project:

source-repository-package
    type: git
    location: https://github.com/haskell/haddock.git
    subdir: haddock-api
    tag: be8b02c4e3cffe7d45b3dad0a0f071d35a274d65

It would use a version of haddock-api fixed for ghc-8.8.2. It was not added cause it breaks the build for other ghc versions than 8.8.2

So, stack build consistently fails on my system.

To fix the installation with cabal, try add to cabal.project ...

That seemed to work OK, and installed a working HIE-8.8.2.

Thank you!

Update

A question: I need to be able to rebuild (when updates arrive ;) HIE for 8.6.5 and 8.8.2 (until 8.6.5 becomes obsolete). To accomplish that, should I just enable/disable that addition to cabal.project? Or is there a better way?

[jneira]

There is another way: you can copy the working cabal-project for ghc-8.8.2 as cabal.project-8.8.2 and install directly the main executable with cabal install hie --project-file=cabal.project-8.8.2. But you will have to copy the resultant hie as hie-8.8 and hie-8.8.2 in the same location (it is what the install script is doing, same for the ghc-8.6.5 version)
