Note: this is currently hacky. It fixes my use case (namely run doctest), but I am not sure it fixes it in general.

The following points need review:

The combination of dependencies lists in mkCondNode: currently done naively.
The hack on condTreeConstraints field: we have a function g :: BuildInfo → f BuildInfo but we need to update [Dependency].

wismill · 2023-02-03T20:08:05Z

New version, which hopefully is correct and much simplier.

ulysses4ever · 2023-02-05T14:57:48Z

I hope to attend to this PR ASAP. I really hope we can squeeze it into 3.10 @Mikolaj

This looks great. Two requests (apart from minor inline comments):

A changelog file
A better commit sequence. Please, force-push your branch so that it doesn't have the previous attempt, and has the cleanup work in a separate commit: this will make reviewers' live resort

I hope to attend to this PR ASAP. I really hope we can squeeze it into 3.10 @Mikolaj

Yes, we are only in semi-freeze, so if there are good reasons, we should merge it into 3.10. E.g., improving CI is a good reason, because 3.10 is going to stay there longer, since we need some other changes before release.

wismill · 2023-02-06T12:34:25Z

Fixed based on feedback, rebased and squashed.

ulysses4ever · 2023-02-06T16:07:42Z

@wismill amazing, thanks! One more thing: could you, please, explain in the commit message (1) what this change does, in plain English, as much as possible, and (2) why you think this fixes the issue?

wismill · 2023-02-06T19:53:16Z

@ulysses4ever I added proper comment & commit message. Unfortunately there is an issue withe the recent release of happy.

Mikolaj

Splendid. I'm now doubly edified: from the code comment and commit comment.

Mikolaj · 2023-02-06T19:54:54Z

Yes, our colleague has already reported the happy problem and we count on them fixing it ASAP so that we don't have to exclude the happy version ourselves. Happy times.

wismill · 2023-02-06T20:03:41Z

Note that I am new to Cabal and although I think the patch is consistent, please double check it!

There might be more places where the pattern L.allCondTrees . traverseCondTreeC might be an issue, e.g. transformAllBuildDepends.

ulysses4ever

Typo in the commit message: "manipuling". Other than that — terrific, thanks!

Mikolaj · 2023-02-06T21:53:22Z

There might be more places where the pattern L.allCondTrees . traverseCondTreeC might be an issue, e.g. transformAllBuildDepends.

Please kindly open a ticket about that. We don't have to do everything in one go.

Mikolaj · 2023-02-06T23:04:37Z

Note that I am new to Cabal and although I think the patch is consistent, please double check it!

Given we want to backport this into 3.10, let's ask our resident gurus @GrayJay, @gbaz and @fgaz for a quick look.

Mikolaj · 2023-02-09T19:11:06Z

@wismill: feel free to set a label (squash+merge_me I guess), which will still give @fgaz 2 days to ponder and grace us with a comment, if @fgaz so chooses.

BTW, let's not forget to open a ticket for the other occurrences of the same pattern in the codebase. Even if we later close the ticket with "nothing to do".

Mikolaj · 2023-02-09T21:12:11Z

@mergify rebase

Previously the function `\f -> L.allCondTrees $ traverseCondTreeC f` was used to add the dependencies, but manipulating `CondTree` this way does not update the nested fields `targetBuildDepends` of the tree, only the conditions. It worked merely by chance if one does not further process these fields: this explains why options like `--allow-newer` or `allow-older` were incompatible with `--build-depends`. Using `L.traverseBuildInfos . L.targetBuildDepends` ensures `targetBuildDepends` fields and conditions are all updated consistently.

⚠️ This pull request got rebased on behalf of a random user of the organization.
This behavior will change on the 1st February 2023, Mergify will pick the author of the pull request instead.

To get the future behavior now, you can configure bot_account options (e.g.: bot_account: { author } or update_bot_account: { author }.

Or you can create a dedicated github account for squash and rebase operations, and use it in different bot_account options.

Regarding backport to 3.10: I'm of two minds here. On one hand, I truly believe this can make 3.10 release greater and brighter. On the other, I think it may break some stuff, perhaps — at least, I didn't see anyone on this thread pleading that it can't. So, perhaps, it's Mikolaj's call.

Mikolaj · 2023-02-13T16:35:30Z

@ulysses4ever: I asked people at the last devs meeting to give this an extra scrutiny specifically due to the late semi-freeze backporting and we did get a lot of reviews in. However, I find your sudden lack of faith disturbing. :)

Mikolaj · 2023-02-13T17:42:47Z

@wismill: do we have the ticket about "the other occurrences of the same wrong pattern in our codebase"? If so, it would be useful to link it here for cross-referencing.
