Publishing my first Haskell executable

[etorreborre]

Wow, nice! (and I guess you mean " to prefer your local cmt over the existing name in nixpkgs")

[ysndr]

yes of course, fixed that typo in the OP.

just to keep this particular thread on track before we close it out, we still have the confusing URLs bit to sort which has been logged internally:

@limeytexan

@etorreborre we completely agree that these URL prompts are confusing (as are the Nix conventions that @ysndr explained above) and our aim is to present a simple and recognizable “canonical/normalized” format to the user in all interactions and then convert to the various Nix conventions as and when required. Let us think about that one and get back to you.

Just to provide a quick update, we are looking to overhaul the usage semantics around flox publish which will also take into account the comments above as well as other feedback. We don’t have a date for this yet but it will be announced in the release notes once done. -)
