Very nice, this looks quite straightforward. I wonder about two things:
- Is it possible to pass configure-time flags to those libraries? For example, I would like to build "haskeline" with "-fterminfo". Can
Hub
do this?
- How do you handle packages that depend on system libraries? "hsdns", for example, requires the adns library to build. Does Hub know about this?
Well observed! There is currently no provision for getting special arguments passed to cabal install when rebuilding the packages -- a weakness that should be addressed. Chris
