Failed to install network-2.4.1.1 (current head), hsc2hs: dist/build/Network/BSD.hs: openFile: unsupported operation

[billdozr]

Not sure if this is the best place to raise this issue, but I thought I'd put it here since it's related to building agains the GHC-iOS target.

I cloned the current https://github.com/haskell/network (it should have the latest patch for ARM/iOS fixes) and ran:

autoreconf
i386-apple-darwin11-cabal install --disable-library-profiling -v2

I got the below error:

I haven't seen that before. But here's something to check: Tell me what version of hsc2hs it is that you're using: /Users/alen/Library/Haskell/bin/hsc2hs

Make sure it's the latest according to our instructions.

[billdozr]

Yes, I can confirm that I followed the instructions for getting the latest hsc2hs and also that it is pointing to the latest version in my path:

/Users/alen/Library/Haskell/bin/hsc2hs -> ../ghc-7.7.20130831/lib/hsc2hs-0.67/bin/hsc2hs

hsc2hs version 0.67

[the-real-blackh]

It works for me. You'll have to debug it. Is the file dist/build/Network/BSD.hs present? Is there anything odd about it?

[billdozr]

Something really strange is going on my end. The BSD.hs was empty.
I cloned the repo again and ran the build again but now I got the error in a different place:

hsc2hs: dist/build/Network/Socket_hsc_test451.txt: openFile: unsupported operation (unknown file type)

Guess what happens when I reran autoconf/autreconf again and build?
Fails in different place.

To many side effects for my liking. :)

[the-real-blackh]

I think that's an effect of the elusive Higgs Boson.

Here's a suggestion: Try running it without the --cross-compile option (edit your i386-apple-darwin11-cabal script)... With that option turned on, it runs hsc2hs zillions of times - far more times than with it turned off. It could be some kind of weird resource leak.

[the-real-blackh]

I should add that --cross-compile is absolutely necessary when building for arm, but can be left out for the simulator (because it's x86-based and the executables can actually be run locally).

[billdozr]

That worked. Perhaps something worth noting on the wiki, under the cabal section, should others come across this problem. Something along the lines of:
In the rare case that you observe the effect of the elusive Higgs Boson when running the simulator cabal script, try and remove the --cross-compile option.

[the-real-blackh]

I think we're going to have to find a proper solution, because we need --cross-compile on ARM.

[billdozr]

Ping me @the-real-blackh should you need me to rerun the scenario again at some later stage alen dot ribic @ gmail dot com.
