| 2025-11-25 20:04:14 +0100 | <hseg> | after all, GHC reads it from its environment |

| 2025-11-25 20:02:31 +0100 | <hseg> | hrm. any way of making Setup.hs read GHC_ENVIRONMENT? I'm only seeing support for --package-db |
| 2025-11-25 19:58:42 +0100 | <hseg> | unfortunately, it seems that setup.exe doesn't know to pick up on that file? |
| 2025-11-25 19:58:11 +0100 | <hseg> | nope, the opposite -- it seems to be how it's communicating the package db info to the program it runs |
| 2025-11-25 19:58:00 +0100 | <geekosaur> | (see `--package-env` in cabal) |
| 2025-11-25 19:57:39 +0100 | <geekosaur> | usually you want that disabled, which I think is what cabal is doing |
| 2025-11-25 19:57:10 +0100 | <geekosaur> | it's an environment file |
| 2025-11-25 19:55:25 +0100 | <hseg> | right... what's GHC_ENVIRONMENT that I see cabal exec setting? |

| 2025-11-25 19:54:26 +0100 | <geekosaur> | but it would have potential issues since it would expose the store, which external commands could then modify without cabal knowing about it |

| 2025-11-25 19:53:48 +0100 | <geekosaur> | mm, actually that's if you set it outside cabal. I don't know if it's possible to have cabal set it for commands it runs |

| 2025-11-25 19:53:17 +0100 | <hseg> | it does |
| 2025-11-25 19:53:10 +0100 | <geekosaur> | iirc cabal throws an error if you do that? |

| 2025-11-25 19:49:22 +0100 | <hseg> | is there some way of getting cabal to do that? |
| 2025-11-25 19:49:14 +0100 | <hseg> | hrm. https://github.com/ndmitchell/shake/issues/267 and comments there suggest the test suite expects GHC_PACKAGE_PATH to be set properly in its environment |

| 2025-11-25 19:35:42 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | open an issue, I guess :p |
| 2025-11-25 19:35:29 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | I see |
| 2025-11-25 19:35:25 +0100 | <hseg> | manual build from git repo |
| 2025-11-25 19:35:17 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | or is the directory name there just incidental and is this a manual build from the git repo |
| 2025-11-25 19:34:58 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | have you managed to run this test suite outside of a special aur build? |
| 2025-11-25 19:34:49 +0100 | <hseg> | fair |
| 2025-11-25 19:34:38 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | this feels a little bit like a shake problem and not a haskell problem |
| 2025-11-25 19:34:29 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | and this is the only occurrence of "setup.exe" in that repo |

| 2025-11-25 19:32:44 +0100 | <hseg> | running git clean -dffx ; cabal build shake-test |
| 2025-11-25 19:32:33 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | also why is the thing called setup.exe -- this is not windows? |
| 2025-11-25 19:32:10 +0100 | tomsmeding | has been burned by doctests not working in the most spectacular of ways once, long ago, and has avoided touching them since |
| 2025-11-25 19:31:53 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | if you clean the build first and then rebuild, does it say anything about it? |
| 2025-11-25 19:31:36 +0100 | <hseg> | not sure -- but src/Test/Docs.hs references it explicitly by name |
| 2025-11-25 19:31:03 +0100 | <tomsmeding> | hseg: how does that setup.exe even end up there? How is it built, and why is it in an old-style dist folder? |
