| 2022-04-30 17:21:59 | <geekosaur> | well, it's not colormap related, if I change it to one of the preallocated values I still get BadValue |

| 2022-04-30 17:44:19 | <geekosaur> | X_QueryColors, tracking down the opcode. so it's not translating it for some reason, but it's doing so each time instead of once during initialization? |

| 2022-04-30 17:56:53 | <Xioulious> | how can i install xmobar without it breaking on a haskell update? i had to install haskell-safe-exceptions and then do a new cabal install of xmobar for it to be able to start again (error was error while loading shared libraries: libHSsafe-exceptions-0.1.7.2-CBfZQcIqSYDK2MNuGjYQ4H-ghc9.0.2.so) |
| 2022-04-30 17:57:25 | <geekosaur> | let me guess, you're on Arch? |
| 2022-04-30 17:58:12 | <Xioulious> | yep |
| 2022-04-30 17:58:39 | <geekosaur> | complain to the Arch maintainers that they yet again updated a dependency without updating the dependents |
| 2022-04-30 17:58:40 | <Xioulious> | i already install xmonad itself with stack due to that, atleast that has kept that part safe so far |
| 2022-04-30 17:59:12 | <geekosaur> | they severely complicate haskell packages and this is one of the effects. if they would do them properly this wouldn't happen |
| 2022-04-30 17:59:41 | <geekosaur> | all I can suggest is avoid Arch packages for Haskell programs until they come to their senses |
| 2022-04-30 18:00:29 | <geekosaur> | because there's nothing we can do if they update dependencies that way and don't update *all* dependents |
| 2022-04-30 18:00:45 | <geekosaur> | we disrecommend dynamic installs for exactly that reason |
| 2022-04-30 18:01:10 | <Xioulious> | and installing xmobar on arch isnt possible with the dynamic installs? |
| 2022-04-30 18:01:47 | <Xioulious> | i meant without |
| 2022-04-30 18:02:01 | <geekosaur> | arch doesn't package non-dynamic installs |
| 2022-04-30 18:02:16 | <geekosaur> | they insist on the dynamic ones, then don't do the work necessary to keep them running |
| 2022-04-30 18:03:09 | <geekosaur> | and unlike (say) C, upgrading a package changes it in incompatible ways due to cross-module inlining, so shared objects have ABI hashes and using a .so with a different ABI hash will break |
| 2022-04-30 18:03:42 | <geekosaur> | we *strongly* recommand static installs. this isn't the greatest of solutions but it does mean things don't randomly break |
| 2022-04-30 18:04:20 | → | arjun joins (~arjun@user/arjun) |
| 2022-04-30 18:04:33 | <Xioulious> | would installing xmobar through the configure script solve that problem, or would it still be using those? |
| 2022-04-30 18:05:36 | <geekosaur> | installing it yourself will default to -static but you would also have to install its dependencies the same way (that is, not ia arch) |
| 2022-04-30 18:06:07 | <geekosaur> | on arch your best bet is to use stack to install everything. I'm not fond of stack but it at least works despite arch packages |
| 2022-04-30 18:07:25 | <Xioulious> | oh so stack would work, couldnt find anything listing that xmobar could be installed that way, ill do that then if i can figure out how to |
| 2022-04-30 18:07:49 | <arjun> | i'm on arch and i installed xmonad via cabal |
| 2022-04-30 18:08:19 | <arjun> | then you go to your ~/.config/xmonad/ folder |
| 2022-04-30 18:08:49 | <arjun> | and cabal install --env . --lib xmonad xmonad-contrib so that xmonad.hs has access to Xmonad libraries |
| 2022-04-30 18:09:09 | <arjun> | took maybe 5 minutes ? |
| 2022-04-30 18:14:27 | <geekosaur> | well, I figured out why it's looking up the color again each time (it uses the windpw |
| 2022-04-30 18:14:39 | <geekosaur> | window's colormap, forgot about that) |
| 2022-04-30 18:14:54 | <geekosaur> | still doesn't explain why it's failing |
| 2022-04-30 18:19:05 | <Xioulious> | when doing the stack install, can i just do the stack install --flags="all_extensions" or how do i cause all to be installed with that? |
| 2022-04-30 18:21:34 | <geekosaur> | I think you have to say something like --flags="xmobar:all_extensions" since stack lets you specify flags per component to be installed |
| 2022-04-30 18:24:02 | <Xioulious> | hmm, says stack install has no --flags option |
| 2022-04-30 18:24:31 | <Xioulious> | though i do see [--flag PACKAGE:[-]FLAG] |
| 2022-04-30 18:24:39 | <Xioulious> | so maybe no equal and stuff |
| 2022-04-30 18:25:12 | <geekosaur> | yeh, the = is cabal |
| 2022-04-30 18:25:26 | <geekosaur> | so --flag xmobar:all_extensions |
| 2022-04-30 18:25:30 | <Solid> | = works just fine for stack, the stray "s" was the issue |
| 2022-04-30 18:25:43 | <Xioulious> | --flag xmobar:all_extensions that worked, its doing stuff now |
| 2022-04-30 18:37:20 | <Xioulious> | k thats a success, got it installed through stack now, which shouldnt break with updates i hope |
| 2022-04-30 18:52:19 | <geekosaur> | bleh. so why is https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad/blob/master/src/XMonad/Operations.hs#L261 failing? |
| 2022-04-30 19:00:29 | <geekosaur> | it's not even suppoosed to generate BadValue |
| 2022-04-30 19:04:40 | <Xioulious> | after a recompile and restart of xmonad trayer likes to stay above fullscreen stuff like when playing youtube in firefox, this is after i already had the firefox window open, is this something due to a misconfiguration in my xmonad? it doesnt do so if i dont recompile/restart xmonad |
| 2022-04-30 19:05:29 | <Xioulious> | think i saw an issue about it with some hack mentioned in it, but if its that one then i need to figure out how to implement it |
| 2022-04-30 19:06:08 | <geekosaur> | the hack is for the opposite problem, trayer gets lowered below an xmobar it's supposed to float above |
| 2022-04-30 19:07:23 | <Xioulious> | ah, then ill search further |
| 2022-04-30 19:12:36 | <Xioulious> | it does seem to be this issue: https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib/issues/211 but it also states a fix that you said is expensive to use, is that the recommended way to go about it still? |
| 2022-04-30 19:21:04 | <geekosaur> | as far as I can tell, it is. as long as it doesn't get triggered too often (queryTree is downright nasty) |
| 2022-04-30 19:22:08 | → | stackdroid18 joins (14094@user/stackdroid) |
| 2022-04-30 19:24:47 | <Xioulious> | i know basically nothing about haskell yet, only been copying and modifying stuff from other configs to get my stuff working the way i want to.. so no clue when/how often that gets triggered |
| 2022-04-30 19:25:39 | <geekosaur> | the code in that ticket should only invoke it when a dock-like window is opened |
| 2022-04-30 19:25:44 | <geekosaur> | so it should be okay |
| 2022-04-30 19:27:03 | <Xioulious> | and only trayer and xmobar are dock-like windows that im using i think, so it should only be used on boot or restart of xmonad |
| 2022-04-30 19:27:34 | <Xioulious> | that solves that now then, i might have more bugs to solve but not sure if i managed to fix them or not.. ill have to see |
| 2022-04-30 19:27:46 | <Xioulious> | ty for always being here and willing to help out though! |
| 2022-04-30 19:40:19 | <geekosaur> | no problem |
| 2022-04-30 19:57:45 | <geekosaur> | Ether[m], I've tracked down the call that is failing but still don't know why. I just did a pass through your config again on the off chance that, X being asynchronous, it was actually an error return from a different call, but it seems not |
| 2022-04-30 19:59:06 | <geekosaur> | and the error it's returning isn't even supposed to be possible according to the protocol docs, but xorg keeps breaking protocols that way so who knows? I can't tell if it was supposed to be BadColor or if they came up with a new way for it to fail in xcb that xlib used to hide |
