Just to confirm, everything builds without jailbreaking now? I know @peti tends to keep jailbreaks in (though I disagree with that).

Yes, the tests still don't run though.

What are your reasons for wanting to remove jailbreaks?
I know we talked about this a while ago, but now I feel like I don't remember any more what your rationale was, which is a good indication that I probably didn't fully understand them at the time.

I like the fact that I'm running un-altered source as much as possible, that I can report real problems upstream and help contribute to Hackage in general, and also there may be subtle bugs with jailbreaking, when type classes change their meaning (though we haven't really observed that problem yet).
You replied by saying "if it broke once it might break again", which is of course true. On the other hand, we seem to break Haskell packaging on master fairly frequently anyway (for example, we updated authenticate-oauth, which still doesn't build until upstream resolve some issues).

There seems to be an issue with haddock: http://hydra.nixos.org/build/10405775/nixlog/1/raw |
