DynamicProjects: creating a new project that partially matches predefined project
by Ramon Diaz-Uriarte 01 Nov '24

01 Nov '24

Dear All, I use XMonad.Actions.DynamicProjects. I have a bunch of configured, predefined projects, say one with name "emacs". Now, when I use switchProjectPrompt, I do not know how to create a new (not predefined) project called "em": as soon as I type "em" it matches "emacs" and on pressing enter the "emacs" project is created. The only solution I've found is to type "em1" or similar, to prevent matching but I guess there must be a simpler way that I am missing.

Could not load modules after recent update
by Eyal Erez 26 Oct '24

Hi, I use xmonad on arch linux. I've recently updated my system, as one often does, and now my xmonad.hs is failing to compile and I am failing to start xmonad. Here is an example of an error: xmonad.hs:3:1: error: Could not load module ‘XMonad.Actions.CycleWS’ It is a member of the package ‘xmonad-contrib-0.18.1-Hn3tyQ1hgcfBs6gP5hIKJ’ which is unusable due to missing dependencies: random-1.2.1.2-4MvNAJNQIvxGHtrKNblxG1 Use -v (or `:set -v` in ghci) to see a list of the files searched for. | 3 | import XMonad.Actions.CycleWS | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The full log is here: https://pastebin.com/KkFQQSwU It seems that xmonad-contrib is missing the "random" library. I've tried reinstalling xmonad, xmonad-contrib, haskell-random, and any other library I can think of. However, it does not seem to improve the situation. Is there anything I can do to debug this further? Here are some of my installed package versions: xmonad 0.18.0-20 xmonad-contrib 0.18.1-5 haskell-random 1.2.1.2-16 Thank you kindly -- There are 10 types of people, those who know binary and those who don't.
