I am trying to build gi-gtk-4.0.8 on Windows10 through stack. But the latest LTS version is only 3.0.41. which I am able to build. I see for example that for ArchLinux version 4.0.8 is available, looking at the hackage website. I have installed the 22.18 LTS version, along with the 3.0.41 gi-gtk package.
Could you point me in the right direction? I’m somewhat new to programming and I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Thank you
I uploaded a picture of the listed versions of gi-gtk found on Hackage.enter image description here
My GHC version is 9.6.4, using Stack 2.13.1
I am trying to code with the Haskell language.
At first I tried modifying the package.yaml file, in the dependencies I specified to use – gi-gtk >= 4.0 && <5 (https://i.stack.imgur.com/tj25w.png)
But it threw the error:
stack build
Error: [S-4804]
Stack failed to construct a build plan.
While constructing the build plan, Stack encountered the following errors. The 'Stack
configuration' refers to the set of package versions specified by the snapshot (after any
dropped packages, or pruned GHC boot packages; if a boot package is replaced, Stack prunes
all other such packages that depend on it) and any extra-deps:
In the dependencies for gtk-intro-seven-0.1.0.0:
* gi-gtk must match >=4.0 && <5, but gi-gtk-3.0.41 is in the Stack configuration (latest
matching version is 4.0.8).
needed since gtk-intro-seven is a build target.
Some different approaches to resolving some or all of this:
* To ignore all version constraints and build anyway, in
C:UsersbuAppDataRoamingstackconfig.yaml (global configuration) or
D:stack-projectsgtk-intro-sevenstack.yaml (project-level configuration), set
allow-newer: true.
* To ignore certain version constraints and build anyway, also add these package names
under allow-newer-deps: gtk-intro-seven.
* Recommended action: try adding the following to your extra-deps in
D:stack-projectsgtk-intro-sevenstack.yaml (project-level configuration):
- gi-gtk-4.0.8@sha256:6011c2d7880c6f9b1a319a593db6b76e5175b3f020fc4b3ca86707ee70c3a1d8,35759
Compilation exited abnormally with code 1 at Wed Apr 24 15:14:13
I then tried modifying the extra-deps in stack.yaml adding the suggested – gi-gtk-4.0.8@sha256:6011c2d7880c6f9b1a319a593db6b76e5175b3f020fc4b3ca86707ee70c3a1d8,35759

Compilation exited abnormally with code 1 at Wed Apr 24 14:56:30
Again I modified, as suggested, the stack.yaml setting allow-newer: true and allow-newer-deps: gi-gtk
But it threw the error
stack build

Compilation exited abnormally with code 1 at Wed Apr 24 15:02:06
At this point it feels as if it is going in circles as even after trying to add the suggested – gi-gsk-4.0.7@sha256:1c96f0d0fdc39b1dfa3314cb00e57cb39931bd7f1a125fb0890435fcae624952 to stack.yaml it throws the error

I tried adding gi-gsk in the allow-newer-deps, it did start compiling but I got an error saying > [3 of 3] Linking C:Users(myusername)AppDataLocalTempstack-a9e044207bc0d717gi-graphene-1.0.7.stack-workdistab060f89setupsetup.exe
gi-graphene > Did not find a GI repository for Graphene-1.0 in [“C:Program Filesgir-1.0″,”/opt/homebrew/share/gir-1.0”].
Although it is compiling and it is saying it’s ignoring the bounds on gi-gdk, it still falls back on the gi-gdk-3.0.28 version. 🙁
Here’s the full message
