I now realize [there is a Ubuntu 12.04 Precise PPA with a current
|
||
|
|
version of
|
||
|
|
git-annex](http://git-annex.branchable.com/install/Ubuntu/), so that's
|
||
|
|
probably a better choice, but here's how I cabal isntalled git-annex.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Apt install non-cabal dependencies:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sudo aptitude install c2hs libgsasl7-dev libxml2-dev
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Manually cabal install yesod-platform to avoid the [cryptocipher problem
|
||
|
|
mentioned above](
|
||
|
|
http://git-annex.branchable.com/install/cabal/#comment-1807da37dc144b572b76aaf4b574bb54):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cabal install yesod-platform
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Cabal install git-annex with DNS flag disabled:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cabal install git-annex -f\"-dns\"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I was getting this error building git-annex before disabling the DNS flag:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Utility/SRV.hs:70:54:
|
||
|
|
Couldn't match expected type `Maybe
|
||
|
|
[(Int, Int, Integer, B8.ByteString)]'
|
||
|
|
with actual type `Either
|
||
|
|
dns-1.0.0:Network.DNS.Internal.DNSError
|
||
|
|
[(Int, Int, Int, dns-1.0.0:Network.DNS.Internal.Domain)]'
|
||
|
|
In the third argument of `maybe', namely `r'
|
||
|
|
In the second argument of `($)', namely
|
||
|
|
`maybe [] (orderHosts . map tohosts) r'
|
||
|
|
In a stmt of a 'do' block:
|
||
|
|
return $ maybe [] (orderHosts . map tohosts) r
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Looking at Utiltity/SRV.hs, it appears that disabling the DNS flag
|
||
|
|
just makes git annex use a different DNS library (ADNS), not
|
||
|
|
actually disable DNS lookups.
