happy-2.0

[mihaimaruseac]

happy-2.0 (changelog) (Andreas Abel [email protected] @andreasabel) is out of bounds for:

• config-value-0.8.3 (>=1.19 && < 1.21). Jens Petersen [email protected] @juhp. Used by: library

happy-lib (not present) depended on by:

• happy-2.0 (==2.0). Andreas Abel [email protected] @andreasabel. Used by: executable

Will place an upper bound on happy

[andreasabel]

@sgraf812 : Looks like happy-lib needs now to be added Stackage.
Do you wish to take over Stackage maintainership of happy?
Basically means you would be pinged in such cases instead of me...

[sgraf812]

Can do!

[andreasabel]

Thanks! That means in practice that you add yourself to the build-constraints.yaml file in a PR and move this line to under your name:

stackage/build-constraints.yaml

Line 113 in 1def8db

- happy < 1.21.0 # Note, cannot use 1.21.0, and 2.0 blocked by https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stackage/issues/7520

(And of course add a line for happy-lib.)

[andreasabel]

@sgraf812 I saw your commit, thanks!
Probably you need to keep the bound happy < 1.21 for now until config-value (@juhp) allows happy-2.0.

[sgraf812]

until config-value (@juhp) allows happy-2.0.

I trust that the stackage curators know what that means and remove the upper bound again(?)

Does stackage understand deprecated versions? I'm going to deprecate 2.0 in favour of 2.0.1 due to haskell/happy#303.

Yes, they will when they can close this issue.

Does stackage understand deprecated versions? I'm going to deprecate 2.0 in favour of 2.0.1 due to haskell/happy#303.

Stackage only has a single version of each package per snapshot, and by default the latest versions enter the nightly snapshot. So, once the bound <1.21 is removed, the latest enters, which is then 2.0.1 and no longer 2.0.

[andreasabel]

I think this issue is only fixed after removing the happy bound, so I guess it should be opened again.

[mihaimaruseac]

That's true, reopening

[juhp]

Okay it's "just me" hm: so actually config-value is not my package at all, I just added it to get copilot into Stackage...

@glguy actually made a commit yesterday already: glguy/config-value@a5f7f92 so I guess we just need to wait or poke him for a release.

[sgraf812]

FWIW, we aren't in a rush here. I don't think anyone is waiting for happy 2.0. I was just wondering if some step in the process was blocked on me without knowing

[glguy]

I updated the bound on hackage

[mihaimaruseac]

I think now we are blocked on Sit and haskell-src which both use happy as build-tools. @andreasabel I think these are on your side?

[andreasabel]

I think now we are blocked on Sit and haskell-src which both use happy as build-tools.

Fixed by haskell-src-1.0.4.1 and Sit-0.2023.8.3@rev:1.

Thank you!
