error: build of ‘/nix/store/5gzxsqhz1bhz0lp79w1jqf1bvsy141pc-wtf-build-please-0.1.0.0.drv’ failed
i looked at the derivation file
grep HUnit /nix/store/an8wi5i04w8iicvla7vm0wpvbzxvlxpr-exception-transformers-0.4.0.5.drv
and it's pulling in HUnit-1.6
, just outside the bounds
i tried patching the exception-transformers
cabal file bounds to HUnit<=1.6
but the build fails with almost the same error, indicating the newly patched range (evidence that the patch was applied, and something else is weird with the build)
poking around in nix-repl, http://lpaste.net/361132, it seems nixpkgs is going to use HUnit-1.5.0
, which is in-bounds for exception-transformers-0.4.0.5
