Description Daniel Douglas 2011-01-14 06:54:12 UTC
xmobar has a new repo, maintainer, and website, though unfortunately it still crashes when switching windows with ghc 7.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Created attachment 259767 [details]
updated live ebuild

A mix between:

hackport make-ebuild <(curl -s https://github.com/jaor/xmobar/raw/master/xmobar.cabal)

and the live ebuild from the haskell overlay. I also added an examples useflag to deal with new/moved documentation.

Hi Dan! I've added bumped xmobar in haskell overlay[1] and
found a workaround[2] to make xmobar work on ghc-7:

You need to build it with '-threaded' added to ghc-opts.

I didn't push the workaround (as it seems to be serious GHC bug),
so you'll have to add the option manually to .cabal file and build it.

I'll add your 'examples' addition a little later.
