when configuring darcs, if it tells me "Could not find module `Prelude'", i assume something is wrong with my ghc installation. any idea what? |
| 12:42 |
|
Jerub |
weary: use a binary. |
| 12:42 |
|
weary |
gentoo :) |
| 12:42 |
|
Jerub |
weary: use a binary. |
| 12:43 |
|
Jerub |
weary: the problem is actually quite simple. GHC is a compiler. You've got a 'bootstrap' compiler for GHC. In order to compile darcs you're going to need to use the bootstrap GHC to compile GHC. |
| 12:44 |
|
Jerub |
weary: on my powermac, that takes a couple hours. |
| 12:44 |
|
Jerub |
then, compiling darcs is a couple minutes. |
| 12:44 |
|
Jerub |
or! you can just use a binary. |
| 12:44 |
|

on amd x2 that should be less, and i have an old version of darcs, i can wait |

also, this is probably the easiest way of getting the latest: http://darcs.net/DarcsWiki/Cat[…]009e0570d2143f152 |

if possible, i'll stick with portage, i'll emerge ghc |
| 12:47 |
|
weary |
ghc-bin should be enough, but apparently it is missing something |
| 12:47 |
|
Jerub |
I think the wiki lies |
| 12:47 |
|
Jerub |
we had someone here a few weeks ago with exactly this problem. |
| 12:48 |
|
weary |
must be |
| 12:48 |
|
Jerub |
update it to reflect your experiences. |
| 12:48 |
|
weary |
ok. i'll just wait 'n see if using the ghc-package solves anything |
| 13:06 |
|
weary |
ok. that was easy. re-emerge of ghc-bin solved it. wiki updated |
| 13:07 |
|
weary |
i also updated the emerge-instructions, i think it was missing a ~x86 in the echo line |

What is wxDarcs? |
| 15:34 |
|
xerox |
I mean the one in the darcs tarball... it doesn't seem to open a wx GUI, but darcs itself. |
| 15:35 |
|
Igloo |
darcs has a WX GUI for some operations...don't know if that's what you're refering to |
| 15:35 |
|
xerox |
Seems not. "make wxDarcs.app" |
| 15:35 |
|
xerox |
I'm just trying to understand if there is a clean way to install darcs now, in fact. |
| 15:36 |
|
xerox |
Unfortunately darwinports doesn't recognize my ghc (which I built in-place.) |
| 15:36 |
|
Igloo |
I think you need a --gui argument if you actually want to use the GUI |
| 15:36 |
|
xerox |
$ ./wxDarcs --gui |
| 15:36 |
|
xerox |
darcs failed: Invalid command '--gui'! |
| 15:36 |
|
Igloo |
make install should work, but obviously won't interact with any packaging system you may have |
| 15:36 |
|
xerox |
Right. |
| 15:36 |
|
xerox |
Does it provide a make uninstall perchance? |
| 15:36 |
|
Igloo |
The argument is probably to the command. I've never tried it myself, though |
| 15:36 |
|
Igloo |
No idea |
| 15:38 |

MD5 (darcs) = 8ed8295acc13f89ef15275998ab14f9f |

1) fix the theoretical problems with patch theory and implement them (you have to write code to get paid by google). 2) cleanup the performance 3) finish the gui 4) improve tortoise darcs 5) tackle random bugs in the bug tracker 6) add darcs support to various IDEs 7) factor darcs into a library |
| 17:21 |
|
lispy |
those are just the ones that come immediately to mind |
| 17:22 |
|
Igloo |
1 is a bad idea if you want to be confident of finishing this summer |
| 17:22 |
|
lispy |
hehe |
| 17:22 |
|
lispy |
it's still important though |
| 17:23 |
|
lispy |
Igloo: can you think of any fun SoC darcs projects that i missed? |
| 17:23 |
|
Igloo |
Yes, but I thought you were listing things that would make good SoC projects |
| 17:23 |
|
lispy |
my projects probably don't sound very fun |
| 17:23 |
|
Igloo |
5 ought to cover all the actual darcs ones. If not, someone should file some bugs :-) |
| 17:23 |
|
lispy |
heh |
| 17:40 |
|
tschwinge |
knows a darcs SoC project: make it usable non-interactively. |
| 17:41 |
|
lispy |
tschwinge: yeah, that might actually be more useful than my #7 |
| 17:41 |
|
lispy |
but i'm partial to the 'libdarcs' idea :) |
| 17:42 |
|
tschwinge |
#7? |
| 17:42 |
|
Igloo |
The "7) factor darcs into a library" in the above list |
| 17:43 |
|
Igloo |
# means "number" in some contexts |
| 17:44 |
|
tschwinge |
Right, no I understand. |
| 17:44 |
|
tschwinge |
Gah. |

Ooh, those are nice! |

piggybox |
how to use darcs to sychronize two project folders on two computers without network? |
| 18:31 |
|
ohub |
I think you could do that with darcs send --output=FILE in first end and darcs apply FILE on another. |
| 18:32 |
|
ohub |
or maybe you could have a repository in USB stick or something and then do pulls and pushes to it. |
| 18:36 |
|
piggybox |
Hi ohub, I've got some clues from the wiki. Since there's not web server, I have syndicate the context(changes log) by myself between two projects in order to use send/apply |
| 18:37 |
|
piggybox |
I will try the idea of mutual folder in a USB sticker. Thanks. |
| 18:39 |
|
ohub |
You can have the "main" repository in your USB stick and then use it like any other darcs repository. |
| 19:04 |
|
piggybox |
Yes, I've tried. It's very easy. Darcs's wonderful. |
| 19:06 |
|
piggybox |
I didn't knew from the document that I can use normal file directory in addition to urls. |
| 19:07 |
|
piggybox |
I was looking for send/apply solution, but it requires taking care of different contexts, which is quite bothersome. |
| 19:09 |
|
ohub |
yeah |
| 19:10 |
|
forcer |
It seems darcs dist only has --posthook - isn't there a "prehook" so I can adjust the contents of the tarball? |
| 19:21 |
|
lispy |
forcer: no prehooks, but yeah, darcs could benefit from them |
| 19:24 |
|
forcer |
Yeah, couldn't it... |
