cabal-install.cabal: allow open-browser-0.4

Make `Flag a` a type synonym for `Last (Maybe a)`

Bodigrim authored 2 weeks ago and Mikolaj Konarski committed 1 week ago

As http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/cabal-devel/2007-December/001509.html
explains, `Data.Monoid.Last` was introduced only in base-3.0 and was too
new in 2007 to rely on. Thus a compatibility shim `data Flag a` was
vendored in.

We are long past 2007 and `Data.Monoid.Last` can now be used instead.
The commit keeps providing `Flag` and `NoFlag` as pattern synonyms
for backward compatibility, but makes `type Flag = Last.`

bootstrap/bootstrap.py: Added support for multithreaded builds

Mark dedup complex test as flaky

always run changelog.d

We've made this a required job to ensure that changelogs are
always valid. But this means we can't use "paths", or PRs that
don't have changelogs will stall because the changelogs job
doesn't get run so it's never considered "succeeded".

This job is cheap, so run it unconditionally. We already know
things are currently valid, so this shouldn't produce any
surprises.

Removes a smattering of, apparent, dead code

Using weeder to find unused definitions. There are a great many more,
but this was an attempt to be relatively conservative in the removal.

testsuite: Supress stderr when running integration tests

Matthew Pickering authored 2 months ago and Mikolaj Konarski committed 1 month ago

This fixes a problem where test output was leaking into GitHub Actions
results (#8419), making the output unnecessarily verbose and harder to read.

This makes the test output much cleaner while still preserving all the
diagnostic information when tests fail.

Also force the test to run sequentially, they fail if you try to run
them concurrently. I think that there are probably issues to do with
setting the working directory when using cabal-install as a library.

Fixes #8419

Allow building foreign libraries on FreeBSD

Fix call convention warnings for AArch64

Add module name validation in cabal check command

Matthew Pickering authored 2 months ago and Mikolaj Konarski committed 1 month ago

This change ensures that Cabal warns about modules with names that would cause
portability issues, especially on Windows systems where certain names like "aux",
"con", "nul", etc. are reserved by the operating system.

Fixes #10295

Pass CXX and CXXFLAGS argument to ./configure scripts for build-type: Configure

Matthew Pickering authored 2 months ago and Mikolaj Konarski committed 1 month ago

Since the compiler since ghc-9.4.8 requires a C++ toolchain, and that is
configured into the compiler --info, it makes sense to pass that
information onto the ./configure script.

The assumption that the C++ compiler is part of the toolchain is only
since ghc-9.4. Therefore, if no C++ compiler is found, then the options
won't be passed to the configure script.

For compilers older than 9.4, the C++ compiler will always be found as
it is configured into the settings file.

See ghc/ghc#25767 (comment 610831) for
some discussion about how this would be useful to implement
system-cxx-std-lib in userspace.

Fixes #10797
