[Nix-dev] Building ghcjs-dom

[Rodney Lorrimar]

Hello List,

I would really like this package to build:

  nix-build -A pkgs.haskell.packages.ghcjs.ghcjs-dom

I found that the layout upstream has changed, so updated the overrides
accordingly (see patch below).

My current problem is that it won't build without Cabal >= 1.24.

If I use (addBuildTool super.ghcjs-dom-jsffi [ self.cabal-install ]),
then it builds Cabal 1.24 as javascript, which is not quite what I want.

Does anyone know how I could make it build?


Cheers,

Rodney
