bug#54752: import: hackage: `elif` conditionals not supported

[Philip Munksgaard]

Since Cabal 2.2 conditional blocks support the `elif` construct [0], but our hackage importer does not currently support such expressions. This causes importing packages like `raaz` [1] to fail.

Hi Philip,

> Since Cabal 2.2 conditional blocks support the `elif` construct [0], but our hackage importer does not currently support such expressions. This causes importing packages like `raaz` [1] to fail.
attached patch series fixes the import for `raaz` by adding support for
elif and other minor adjustments. There still is syntax we do not support,
most importantly mixed indentation, which is already documented as xfail
via a testcase. I’m adding a few more.

Could you have a look please if these make sense?

Cheers,
Lars

Looks like it works! Unfortunately, building raaz still fails (first because of the description, then because some internal libraries are added as external dependencies, and then for... other reasons I haven't figured out. But all of those are separate issues.

Hi Philip,

thank you!

You’re right, it fails with this error for me, which indicates haskell-build-system has a bug _somewhere_.

Yes, I don't think that should hold back these patches from going into wip-haskell.
