I updated stack and it worked. I guess gitit 0.12.3.2 just cannot be built with ghc 8.0.2?

The haskell motto should perhaps be: Always bring everything with you and ensure you have a few spare hours.

This due to API change in the filestore package, which should have been marked by a major version bump but wasn't. If you constrain to Diff < 0.4 it should work.

jgm added a commit to jgm/filestore that referenced this issue Nov 21, 2019
Data.File.Generic now exports PolyDiff(..) as well as Diff,
and we require Diff >= 0.4.  Fixes build error with gitit.
See jgm/gitit#637.

The current dev version of gitit should work with both stack and cabal.

@capn-freako

@jgm , when you said this, above:

The current dev version of gitit should work with both stack and cabal.

Did you mean that, if I:

  1. clone the gitit repo (master branch),

  2. move into the resultant gitit directory, and

  3. execute the following commands, in order:

    1. cabal configure --ghc
    2. cabal build
    3. cabal install

that it should work?

I tried the above and got:

looking at our CI, cabal builds seem to be failing now but stack still works.

The cabal version use hoauth2 >= 1.9.0 and the stack -lts 14.14 used hoauth2 = 1.8.9,
The type of authGetBS (from hoauth2) changes between these two versions.
Having a look at it.

@capn-freako, I have been able to cabal install gitit by modifying in the file gitit.cabal the lines in the buil-depends section mentioning pandoc, hoauth2 and network:

 pandoc >= 2.8 && < 2.9,
  ...
 hoauth2 >= 1.3.0 && < 1.9,
 ...
 network >= 2.6 && < 2.7,

@jgm , if you think this work on the cabal build is worth a PR, I can submit one.
... There will be more work to upgrade the stack build...

@freiric , Thank you!

I am confirming that I was able to complete a cabal build/install, using the suggested modifications to gitit.cabal.

Oh, I spoke too soon.
I'm getting the following run-time error, when I try to launch my newly built gitit executable:

Network.Gitit.Plugin.Ordinal is not part of gitit. This must be a 3rd party plugin you're trying to use. Check your conf.

Apologies; you are correct.
It (cabal-ified) is working fine.

[__5] fail (backjumping, conflict set: haddock-library, pandoc, parsec)
After searching the rest of the dependency tree exhaustively, these were the
goals I've had most trouble fulfilling: pandoc, haddock-library, pandoc-types,
gitit, base, parsec, binary, zlib

Same (or similar) result from "cabal new-install" and with a current clone of the gitit repo.

Am I using the wrong build incantation? Or maybe too fresh a GHC 8.8.x?

Looks like it's failing on our GitHub Actions CI as well for GHC 8.8.
This is unexpected, since the PR I merged claimed to be supporting 8.8.
I'll comment over on #646

@conal Does running cabal build in the current clone of the gitit repo (if current, should show as gitit-0.13.0.0) complain about the library MissingH in its error message?

The inability to build MissingH using GHC 8.8.x is an outstanding problem for #646.

Yes it does (with a fresh git pull).

Has anyone taken any steps to try to get MissingH fixed in Hackage so that it works with GHC 8.8.x? It's not a direct dependency of gitit -- which of our dependencies requires it?

EDIT: haskell-hvr/missingh#52

There is also haskell-hvr/missingh#51 which has been open with no response from the dev since November, and haskell-infra/hackage-trustees#253.

Gitit depends on it through gitit -> ConfigFile -> MissingH.

Might be easier to rewrite Network.Gitit.Config to avoid the dependency than to get this fixed. I don't have time for this but maybe someone else would want to.
Looks like https://hackage.haskell.org/package/ini does something similar to ConfigFile with saner dependencies.

MissingH has updated and released, so rerunning the gitit CI build now should have it succeed on GHC 8.8.

I'll rerun them.
