@check these days goes through mueval. Are you sure mueval is installed & working?
Au contraire: I am sure that mueval was *not* installed. (Am I justified to be a just a little bit annoyed that it was not installed as a dependency by cabal install? Or that there was no indication whatsoever that mueval's absence was the cause of the problem?)
Now that I have installed it explicitly myself, I do seem to make some more progress, but it's still far short of the ideal:
lambdabot> check True unrecognized option `--loadfile=' Usage: mueval [OPTION...] --expression EXPRESSION... -p PASSWORD --password=PASSWORD The password for the mubot account. If this is set, mueval will attempt to setuid to the mubot user. This is optional, as it requires the mubot user to be set up properly. (Currently a null-op.)
[etc. etc.]
You can try running the tests.sh script which will exercise the QuickCheck functionality among other things.
This, AFAICT, seems to go just fine. There's lots of output with which I won't spam you, other than to say that it includes the text "OK, all the valid expressions worked out well. Now let's test various misbehaved expressions". The last line of the output is "
>". So, it seems that I am now faced with the problem of getting lambdabot and mueval to talk to each other sensibly. Any pointers would be gratefully received.
Hi Jacek and Gwern, In the upgrade from mueval from 0.8 to 0.8.1, some of the mueval command line options were changed: --loadfile => --load-file --noimports => --no-imports For Plugins/Check.hs I change --loadfile to -l. To convince lambdabot to run on gentoo, I patch it to use --no-imports to avoid this problem: % mueval -e '1 + 2' Ambiguous module name `Control.Monad.Cont': it was found in multiple packages: monads-fd-0.1.0.2 mtl-2.0.1.0 monads-tf-0.1.0.0 % And I patch the lambdabot /usr/share/lambdabot-4.2.3.2/ghc-7.0.3/State/L.hs to used -XPackageImports. Then mueval works: % mueval --no-imports -l ~/.lambdabot/State/L.hs -e '1 + 2' 3 % And lambdabot works: % lambdabot Initialising plugins ................................................... done. lambdabot> @check True +++ OK, passed 100 tests.
