[Coke] any haskell folks about that can help me figure out Pugs.hs's latest breakage? 01:48
geekosaur semi haskellish but not in a good position to try to build stuff
hm 01:49
see if I can get the external drive with most of the dev stuff on it working
hrm, right, hadn't upgraded HP to latest yet. still don't know what;s involved there (and may become very unhappy if things go wrong, as I'm running this irc session under xmonad...) 01:51
[Coke] I am trying "sudo apt-get upgrade ghc" on feather. 01:55
02:01 tokuhiro_ joined
[Coke] it's asking me to trust some certs. Any suggestions? Trust any, none all? 02:03
geekosaur yep, I get to reinstall stuff, sigh 02:05
the yaks are hairy... 02:16

geekosaur hm, wonder how I had ghc-core installed before, pcre-light causes it to hit the iconv problem head on 02:55
[Coke] I have to think I upgraded too much stuff here accidentally on feather. 02:59
... and not ghc at all. WTF. 03:00

diakopter why is it when I go to shake a yak, it's just more yaks underneath, forever? 03:59
sorear diakopter: They're fractal yaks. 04:01
04:03 PacoAir left
colomon fractal yaks. shudder. 04:05
colomon spent 90 minutes bisecting a nonexistent bug this evening.
sorear sounds like fun, colomon 04:12
diakopter imagine dissecting 04:13
colomon regular barrel of laughs. 04:15
got it narrowed down to one patch, and it was all whitespace. 04:16
eventually worked out the problem was that not everything had recompiled properly ever time. 04:17
diakopter has been hunting a "bug" for several days 04:57
only to realize, finally, if I cut out 98% of the code paths I thought could have been causing the problem, the problem still exists. So it's a problem with my measurement and testing harness. 04:58
05:31 telex left
diakopter yes, I'm something enough to admit it sometimes takes me several days to diagnose a problem. 05:33

Woodi hallo today 05:35
sorear hola Woodi
Woodi backlogging make mi think that Synopses could have additional web editable representation like c2.com wiki, eg: c2.com/cgi/wiki?PerlProgramming 05:39
05:39 cognominal left
Woodi at least for discusion 05:39
hallo sorear ! :) 05:40
so sorear you going to academia ? :) 05:42
sorear doubt it 05:45
Woodi I like to read D. Parnas articles lastly. he wanted to be physics scientist but one day he realized his life objective is "not to discover next digit in some constant representation". ant then he goes for better software... 05:48
"software crisis" was coined in 70s ? :) 05:49
Woodi coffe... 05:50
sorear my life objective is to settle another world
diakopter surely that requires billions 05:51
(how would you like to earn billions) 05:52
sorear in order to have a proper settlement, we need to invent cost-cutting measures. you can't build a proper settlement society out of billionaires. 05:56
one needs more diversity than that
and if I knew exactly what I needed to do.... I probably wouldn't be here ^_^ 05:57
diakopter ohI didn't mean send billionaires there
I meant it sould require billions to send a monkey there 05:58
sorear right now my subgoal is more "cultivate every talent that could conceivably be of any use" 05:59
[Coke] geekosaur: github.com/perl6/Pugs.hs
sorear diakopter: we need to get the mass transit cost to $100k a head or so. 06:00
I'm certain this will be easier than proving P!=NP
diakopter so do that first :) 06:01
sorear plausible designs for low-amortized-cost space transport are a dime a dozen in the SF literature 06:02
_nobody_ has a plausible design for a proof of P!=NP
diakopter I didn't mean mazs transit cost. I meant research and development costs to send the first monkey
sorear 1. wait for global recession to end 06:04
2. worm my way into the ESA top brass
3. profit
ISRO would also be a good candidate, but might be more difficult to infiltrate 06:05
(for a visibly-foreign person) 06:07
06:08 kaare_ joined
Woodi hmm, transportation problem is probably just first step... but when team arive on place they can use that opensource "civilisation construction set" :) 06:08
sorear Woodi: the civilization construction set assumes you have access to plentiful wood. it is no good for those who leave the biosphere entirely. 06:09
06:11 skids left
Woodi that's bad, you can settle only in Amazonia or 40 years after some apocaliptic event... 06:12
and I was worried about problem with proper certificates for theirs bakery oven... eh 06:13
Woodi need to push bread into oven & 06:14
[Coke] bah. pugs works fine on my mac with ghc 7.4.1 - fails on feather. 06:17

Woodi this is fun :) : www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/ewd03xx/EWD340.PDF 06:37
It starts: As a result of long sequence of coincidents I entered the programming proffesion oficially *on the first spring morning of 1952*... 06:40
he exactly remember morning in concret day in concret year. Looking in Leonard Cohen (singer/poet) there is similiar experience: he enter old books store, open some random book and... his life was "destroyed", cannot be the same as before... I foggy remember similiar discusion some time ago here... 06:42

jaffa4 longest token matching.. WHat is the point of that? 13:35
masak when you call a set of multimethods and several of them match, you want the one that matches the narrowest. 13:37
for example, if you pass (5, 42) to something with either the signature (Any, Any) or (Int, Int), you'd prefer the latter because it's narrower.
similarly, when parsing, you'd prefer the alternation or subrule that matches as long a prefix as possible, because it probable has the best idea of what it's doing. 13:38
for example maybe the input "sub foo" would match both a rule for function calls and function declarations. but the former would only match "sub" and the latter would match the whole "sub foo". so LTM (correctly) prefers the latter. 13:39
jaffa4 ok 13:40
masak there really is a deep, strange consistency between multi calls and LTM. they do start to differ at some point, though, namely when they fail. routines give up right away, but subrules/alternations start to backtrack and recursively try the second best match, etc. 13:41
jaffa4 another issue, how to copy the matches into variables...in Perl6? In Perl 5, there was a shortcut for that. 13:44
e.g. ($basename) = ( $filename ~~ /^(.+)[.][^\\]+$/ );
13:50 am0c_ is now known as am0c
masak Perl 6 doesn't really have list context. 13:54

Woodi what is sigil for bag type ? 14:14
masak I have what I believe to be a rakudobug. would like someone to confirm.
nom -n -e '.say if /^...$/' /usr/share/dict/words
works on my box, but last word is "Fez", which is obviously not all output. 14:15
Woodi: there is no sigil for the bag type. it's not important enough.
Woodi: however, sigils are part of the (mutable) grammar, so presumably if you care enough you should be able to add one in user code. (eventually)
moritz: could the current factoring of cmdline options be extended to handle -ne ? 14:16
moritz: it's such a small shortcut, but I find I miss it... 14:17
Woodi masak: so @array and %hash are "aliases" ? eg. $array.push is valid ? I wonder if all varibles can be $ prefixed (threated as objects) and methods/subs called on them 14:20

masak additional $ symbols do not do dereferencing in Perl 6. 16:04
[Coke] geekosaur: I tried removing DynException $ and it still doesn't build. 16:05
geekosaur what error are you getting? also I'm using the latest Haskell Platform that just came out 16:07

[Coke] I am using 7.4.1 on feather. 16:08
(ghc --version == 7.4.1) 16:09
geekosaur: gist.github.com/4051505
geekosaur I have 7.4.2. I don't recall any major changes between the two offhand
oh. it's failing to find the perl5 devel headers 16:10
I don't think I can help with that, need to find someone who knows how perl5 is installed on feather/can do something about it 16:11
I don't even have an account on feather
[Coke] I have root on feather. :)
I just don't know what to do with it. 16:12
geekosaur is libperl-dev installed? 16:13
(I think I recall feather running debian?) 16:14
16:19 domidumont joined 16:25 orafu joined
[Coke] libperl-dev is installe. 16:30
geekosaur so the configure script isn't finding it for some reason
perl −MConfig −e 'print "−I$Config{archlibexp}/CORE"' 16:32
check if the directory that wants to use exists and has the right perl headers in it 16:33
specifically the one the error message is complaining about 16:41
[Coke] Can't open perl script "−MConfig": No such file or directory 16:42
geekosaur just got that too, and is confused
...works with macports perl, not with system perl. huh? 16:43
hm, maybe it's soemthing weird in the paste, I just did it manually
yeh, I think it copy-pasted nonbreaking spaces or 16:44
something
16:44 PacoAir joined
[Coke] ok. so there's a dir. 16:44
geekosaur hm, was going to ask if that headrr was in it but it's not there on my system either. digging 16:45
oh, wait, I'm looking att the wrong thing 16:47
that header shouldbe installed by HsPerl5
16:48 domidumont left
geekosaur you need to install the stuff in that repo in the proper order or cabal will install out of date versions from hackage, which might be causing you issues 16:48
16:48 domidumont joined
geekosaur the order I used was: MetaObject HsSyck pugs-DrIFT pugs-compat HsParrot HsPerl5 Pugs 16:49
[Coke] is cabal just installing things in ~/.cabal, neh? 16:50
geekosaur "ghc-pkg unregister" any installed versions first
there and ~/.ghc
.ghc is where packages actually get installed, .cabal is where cabal-install puts its own metadata

it's Real that has a .base
[Coke] apt-get pkgnames shows a libpcre3-dev - how do I install this with apt-get? (apt-get install libcpre3-dev says "unable to locate package") 17:28
Woodi strange... I have such one installed 17:30
"apt-get update" first ? /etc/apt/sources.list ok ? 17:31

[Coke] update doesn't help 17:34
geekosaur looks like it should be there. I have no idea what might be up on feather though 17:37
raiph (Follow up to my earlier comment; (it looks like) it's too late for Perl 6 to be part of TPF google code-in application) 17:39

17:41 GlitchMr42 left
[Coke] geekosaur: oh! spelling is important. 17:42
Woodi [Coke]: apt-get -f install sometimes helps if previous update failed. sometimes apt-get dist-upgrade but this can be dangerous on development box :) 17:43
[Coke] and now I'm back to: * Missing (or bad) header file: perl5/p5embed.h 17:44
geekosaur :( 17:50

geekosaur actually this cabal file thinks HsPerl5 was merged into (or not yet separated fully from) Pugs... 17:50
17:50 kst joined
geekosaur so perl5/p5embed.g should be under Pugs.hs/Pugs 17:51
