won't build on OpenBSD #8

I'm running OpenBSD 6.0-stable amd64, GHC 7.10.3, cabal lib 1.22.8.0, BerkeleyDB 4.6.21p3v0. |

I tried both |

Can you verify you've had BerkeleyDB installed in your system? Which system prefix did you install it to? From the error it looks like the names can't be found (but they are actually in the file); can you download the package from here https://hackage.haskell.org/package/BerkeleyDB and try installing from that local copy? |

BerkeleyDB is installed. Its in /usr/local, see below: I just downloaded the tarball, extracted, and ran |

OK, let me take a look over the weekend and then get back to you. |

Here you are: And the install version: |

Thanks, I appreciate it! |

Gotcha. I'll grab the BerkeleyDB code used by the OpenBSD port and take a look.

The db.h is from your BerkeleyDB installation (not related to haskell).
The haskell code is trying to read these preprocessor constants but
fails.

Looks like the OpenBSD port grabs the source from: http://download.oracle.com/berkeley-db/db-4.6.21.tar.gz and then applies 4 patches to it: The first 'undeclared' constant from the above list does show up: |
|
Can you check the installed header file in your system rather than those in the build directory? |
|
Yes. |
|
Can you check /usr/include/db.h? |
|
It does NOT include those defines, see:

I'm afraid that's the problem here... I'll see if I can remove this dependency altogether - but for the moment I'm closing this since it's not clear how to move on for OpenBSD with only small fix. |

Makes sense. Thanks for giving this some thought!

VIMonad looks awesome, so I thought I'd try it on my laptop. I was able to build xmonad, but xmonad-contrib isn't cooperating:
I tried ripping out the code that depends on BerkeleyDB, the CIM stuff, to see if I could build it without that feature, but soon realized the surgery wouldn't require more knowledge of the code that I currently have.
So, just in case you're interested, I thought I'd share.
