使用 nix-shell 通过 cabal 查找外国图书馆

Finding foreign library with cabal using nix-shell

我有类似的问题:

基本上我使用 cabal2nix 从 package.yaml 生成包含:

extra-libraries:
  - libmnl

这会生成一个 cabal.nix 文件:

{ mkDerivation, base, bytestring, cereal, containers, hpack
, iproute, lens, libmnl, netlink, primitive
, resourcet, safe-exceptions, stdenv, transformers
}:
mkDerivation {
  pname = "relay";
  version = "0.1.0.0";
  src = ./.;
  libraryHaskellDepends = [
    base bytestring cereal containers iproute lens netlink
    primitive resourcet safe-exceptions transformers
  ];
  librarySystemDepends = [ libmnl ];
  libraryToolDepends = [ hpack ];
  testHaskellDepends = [
    base bytestring cereal containers iproute lens netlink
    primitive resourcet safe-exceptions transformers
  ];
  testSystemDepends = [ libmnl ];
  preConfigure = "hpack";
  homepage = "https://github.com/MatrixAI/Relay#readme";
  license = stdenv.lib.licenses.asl20;
}

如果我通过 nix-shell 和 运行 cabal configure 进入这个。它抱怨找不到 libmnl:

Resolving dependencies...
Configuring relay-0.1.0.0...
cabal: Missing dependency on a foreign library:
* Missing (or bad) C library: libmnl
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that
provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is
already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags
--extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is.If the
library file does exist, it may contain errors that are caught by the C
compiler at the preprocessing stage. In this case you can re-run configure
with the verbosity flag -v3 to see the error messages.

此外 运行ning gcc -c test.c -lmnlnix-shell 内的这个文件上工作:

#include <libmnl/libmnl.h>

int main() { return 0; }

那么为什么 cabal 找不到 libmnlgcc 可以很容易地在 nix-shell.

中找到它

当 运行 -v3 它似乎试图 link 到 -llibmnl。但正确的 linking 应该是 -lmnl。这看起来很有问题,有没有办法告诉 cabal 使用标志 -lmnl,而不是 -llibmnl

我发现,如果我编辑 Cabal 文件并将 extra-libraries 更改为指向 mnl 而不是 libmnl,它就会通过更改 Cabal 尝试 [=] 的方式来工作57=]。然而,cabal2nix 然后在采用 package.yaml 时生成 libmnl,这是来自 Nix 的正确包属性。看起来 extra-libraries 应该是 mnlcabal.nix 应该是 libmnl.

基本上 extra-libraries 需要使用 mnl 而不是 libmnl。那么在使用cabal2nix时,需要将libmnl包映射到mnl属性。这已通过上游 cabal2nix 将 mnl 映射到 libmnl 提交解决:https://github.com/NixOS/cabal2nix/issues/413#event-2257811946
