Hi ports@,
I'm trying to write a port for git-annex, which is built using
Haskell's Cabal. I'm new to OpenBSD porting and don't completely
understand the lang/ghc module.
Basic question: do all of the Haskell dependencies (from git-annex.cabal) need
to already have their own ports (like devel/hs-async, devel/hs-network, etc)?
(Or will the missing ones be magically built like cabal-install normally does?)
If they do need to all be ported, how isn't there e.g. a devel/hs-containers
port --- doesn't basically every Haskell project depend on the containers
package?
git-annex has at least 50 dependencies I couldn't find in ports, so I
want to make sure I understand this before I start porting them one at
a time (or just give up)...
Also, I'm using devel/darcs/Makefile as my model but don't understand
the following comment. Should I also be listing git-annex's
dependencies in BUILD_DEPENDS instead of LIB_DEPENDS?
# Yes, build dependencies, because GHC libs are still static and we
# don't want to pull in all of ghc.
BUILD_DEPENDS = archivers/hs-zip-archive>=0.2.3,<0.4 \
archivers/hs-zlib>=0.6.1.2,<0.7.0.0 \
...
Another question: what is MODGHC_PACKAGE_KEY? ghc.port.mk describes it
as the "package key" of the library, but I don't know what that means.
Here is what I have so far. I only included the dependencies that are
already in ports. Currently make build fails with a compiler error
"Could not find module ‘System.FilePath.ByteString’", indicating that
it is indeed a problem that there's no filepath-bytestring port.
