Peter Simons d0bfd6936e pkgs/build-support/cabal: add 'testDepends' to 'extraBuildInputs' if 'doCheck' is set to 'true' 2013-02-25 00:32:40 +01:00
Peter Simons d8974b47cb pkgs/build-support/cabal: filter 'doCheck=false' field from the expression to avoid unnecessary hash changes
In the master branch, doCheck defaults to 'false', which means that no package
will change its hash unless its doCheck field is set to 'true' explicitly. In
the stdenv-updates branch, however, all Haskell packages have a default setting
of 'doCheck=true'. Once that branch has been merged, filtering doCheck is no
longer necessary.

Aristid Breitkreuz e89aea5e42 add luite's mirror to cabal/hackage download expression (for when hackage.haskell.org is down) 2012-12-15 23:34:49 +01:00
Peter Simons 470ade254e Add support for jailbreak-cabal utility to the Cabal builder.
Jailbreaks-cabal allows Nixpkgs maintainers to quick-fix builds of packages
that over-specify their version requirements by removing the version
restrictions of all dependencies from the Cabal file. Set

  jailbreak = true

in the build expression to activate this feature.

Peter Simons cecff49b34 Moved the cabal build driver function from development/libraries/haskell/cabal to build-support/cabal.
This change also resolves the "cabal" vs. "Cabal" ambiguity on file systems
that don't distinguish case.
