## trying to build XMPP
Trying to install the deps, using libs from cygwin. Cabal can be used
with some hacking:
1. gnutls-$LATEST.zip from <http://josefsson.org/gnutls4win/>
2. pkg-config from
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/pkgconfiglite/files/latest/download?source=files>
3. libxml2 from mingw:
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MSYS/Extension/libxml2/libxml2-2.7.6-1/>
both the -dll and the -dev
3. gsasl from <ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/gsasl/>
3. gnuidn from <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libidn/libidn-1.28-win32.zip>
3. Extract all the above into the Haskell platform's mingw directory. Note
that pkg-config needs to be moved out of a named subdirectory.
4. Run in DOS prompt (not cygwin!): cabal install gnutls libxml-sax gsasl gnuidn network-protocol-xmpp
cabal unpack libxml-sax
cd libxml-sax-*
cabal configure --extra-lib-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\lib --extra-include-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\usr\\include\\libxml2
cabal build || true
cabal copy
cabal register
cabal unpack gnutls
cd gnutls-*
cabal configure --extra-lib-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\lib --extra-include-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\usr\\include\\
cabal build || true
cabal copy
cabal register
# get mingw x86 gasal zip from <ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/gsasl/> and unpack
# into the Haskell platform's mingw directory.
cabal unpack gsasl
cd gsasl-*
cabal configure --extra-lib-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\lib --extra-include-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\usr\\include\\
cabal build || true
cabal copy
cabal register --gen-pkg-config
grep -v /home/jas gsasl*.conf > hacked.conf
ghc-pkg update hacked.conf --global --user --force
Cannot get haskell gnuidn binding to link. Workaround: It's not hard to hack
network-client-xmpp to not use gnuidn.
dlls don't get found when building git-annex,
at TH link time. Worked around by copying /usr/bin/cyggnutls-28.dll to
./gnutls.dll, and the same for several others. Note that gsasl has
to be copied from where it was installed in ming2/bin/libgsasl-7.dll
to gsasl.dll (the libgsasl.dll from cygwin won't work).
Loading package gnutls-0.1.5 ... linking ... done.
Loading package gsasl-0.3.5 ... linking ... ghc.exe: unable to load package `gsasl-0.3.5'
ghc.exe: C:\Documents and Settings\me\Application Data\cabal\gsasl-0.3.5\ghc-7.6.3\HSgsasl-0.3.5.o: unknown symbol `_gsasl_client_start'
Current problem:
GHCi runtime linker: fatal error: I found a duplicate definition for symbol
_adler32
whilst processing object file
C:\cygwin\lib\libz.a
I think this means I can't use the cygwin libs, and need to get mingw
builds of gnutls and libxml2 instead.
TODO: Try <http://josefsson.org/gnutls4win/>, and libxml2 from mingw,
and pkg-config from <http://www.gtk.org/download/win32.php> or
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/pkgconfiglite/files/latest/download?source=files>
