2025-03-16 22:22:24 +0100 <mauke> how do I tell 'cabal check' to verify that my changelog contains an entry for the current version?
2025-03-16 22:21:09 +0100 <mauke> haha
2025-03-16 22:20:28 +0100 <merijn> like, yesterday
2025-03-16 22:20:20 +0100 <merijn> mauke: I only discovered due to modern cabal's warning about it xD

2025-03-16 22:20:08 +0100 <merijn> mauke: Same ;)
2025-03-16 22:19:37 +0100 <mauke> love discovering cutting edge features from 2013

2025-03-16 22:18:05 +0100 <merijn> extra-doc-files do not
2025-03-16 22:18:03 +0100 <mauke> yeah, just found that
2025-03-16 22:17:54 +0100 <merijn> mauke: The one thing that should easily clinch the argument for you: extra-source-file changes invalidate the build cache
2025-03-16 22:17:30 +0100 <merijn> mauke: extra-source-file predates extra-doc-file (which wasn't really popularised enough)
2025-03-16 22:17:07 +0100 <merijn> extra-doc-file
2025-03-16 22:17:06 +0100 <mauke> prior art seems split on this point
2025-03-16 22:16:58 +0100 <mauke> is a changelog an extra-source-file or an extra-doc-file?

2025-03-16 22:10:28 +0100 <c_wraith> it's just not implemented with the non-threaded runtime. I suggested an implementation and was told "that's a feature request, not a bug"
2025-03-16 22:09:46 +0100 <merijn> oof

2025-03-16 22:08:29 +0100 <EvanR> library best viewed in internet explorer
2025-03-16 22:08:21 +0100 <merijn> c_wraith: Which function is crashing?
2025-03-16 22:08:14 +0100 <jle`> (/s)
2025-03-16 22:08:10 +0100 <jle`> what if you added -threaded to your library cabal stanza
2025-03-16 22:07:48 +0100 <c_wraith> you just get to hack around one function always crashing when the non-threaded runtime is chosen. With code that should just be in the library
2025-03-16 22:07:24 +0100 <c_wraith> as a library author, you don't get to choose the runtime.

2025-03-16 22:07:00 +0100 <merijn> c_wraith: People still using the non-threaded runtime is a bug ;)

2025-03-16 22:06:40 +0100 <c_wraith> I wish I could convince the GHC maintainers that a function crashing with the non-threaded runtime is in fact a bug.
2025-03-16 22:06:37 +0100 <merijn> Clearly I'm a prophetic visionary with impeccable taste
2025-03-16 22:06:19 +0100 <merijn> c_wraith: Only to a decade later which the GHC list discuss how to implement what I asked for
2025-03-16 22:05:59 +0100 <merijn> c_wraith: I wrote a library because some GHC maintainers thought my suggestion was silly and no one would want that
2025-03-16 22:05:49 +0100 <jle`> my libraries had a user once

2025-03-16 22:05:15 +0100 <c_wraith> much to my surprise, that library even has a user now.
2025-03-16 22:05:07 +0100 <merijn> Which lib is that?
2025-03-16 22:05:05 +0100 <c_wraith> I once wrote a library because I didn't like a blog post.
2025-03-16 22:04:57 +0100 <merijn> mauke: ;)
2025-03-16 22:04:41 +0100 <mauke> and now it's 17 years old and has 841 direct, 14225 indirect reverse dependencies
2025-03-16 22:04:21 +0100 <mauke> I once had a cute idea for a silly little haskell library
