Hi,
I?m trying to install Hakyll within a cabal sandbox. The issue I?m running
into is that the current version of Pandoc doesn?t build because of this bug:
https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/1590
The bug is a simple fix, and is fixed on github, but not in the version on
hackage. I?d like to use ?cabal get? to download the source, manually fix the
source, then compile. The question I have is how do I pick up the installation
process after fixing the source?
So far this is what I?ve done:
$ mkdir hakyll
$ cabal update
$ cd hakyll
$ cabal sandbox init --sandbox .
$ cabal install -j hakyll
[this is the spot where pandoc fails to install]
$ cabal get pandoc-1.13.1
$ cd pandoc-1.13.1/
[patch the source]
At this point I need to resume the compilation and installation process. How
do I do that? Do I move back up to the parent directory and then issue the
'cabal install -j hakyll? command again?
Thanks,
James

"cabal install -j" without a package name should install the package in the
current directory as it is. Specifying a package name will cause that
package to be downloaded from Hackage, which in this case you don't want.

Thank you for your suggestion. I think you're saying that I should ?cabal
install -j? from within the pandoc-1.13.1 directory to build pandoc. But then
I will still need to build hakyll, so do I cd up to the hakyll parent directory
and cabal install -j from there as well?
Thanks,
James

Just "cabal install -j hakyll" as usual. It'll see the installed pandoc
and, as long as the version is compatible, not reinstall it. It should give
you a warning if it's incompatible. In that case, you'll need to ask the
hakyll folks and possibly have to install whatever package requires it
manually in the same way you are installing pandoc, but in this case you
would just be editing the cabal file to fix the version.

Unfortunately this isn?t working. The pandoc build appears to work with the
patched source, but then the hakyll build fails. If I?m reading this properly,
it appears that pandoc is not getting installed in the sandbox. Then it
appears that hakyll is not finding the successful pandoc build (probably
because it wasn?t installed to the sandbox) and is trying to build pandoc
again, using un-patched code and failing with the same original error. Here is
the output, truncated a bit during the pandoc build. Any suggestions on how to
fix this? Thanks.

This sounds like it did not indeed install in the sandbox (compare the
notice after "Resolving dependencies" in the hakyll install). Unfortunately
I don't know what follows from here; it sounds like a cabal bug to me, but
maybe being in the patched pandoc source directory keeps it from seeing the
sandbox, in which case maybe there's an option to point to a specific
sandbox for installs? (I still don't have a working Haskell install on my
new machine, and am not sure at this point when I'll be able to get to it,
sigh.)
