Topic: ✔ `.coqrc` leaking into coq stdlib due to dune build?

I haven't reproduced this, but I built Coq with Set Nested Proofs Allowed. in .coqrc, and it seems to have leaked into the Coq stdlib... I've seen it for instance in:

Test Nested Proofs Allowed. (* off *)
From Ltac2 Require Import Ltac2.
Test Nested Proofs Allowed.  (* on *)

that might be due to user-contrib/Ltac2/dune having (flags -w -deprecated-native-compiler-option) instead of (flags :standard -w -deprecated-native-compiler-option) — the former will omit -q from the coqc command line, so I think such a leak is expected?

what coq version?

Also Set with default locality shouldn't have an effect beyond the current module

Coq 8.16, and .coqrc had #[global] Set Nested Proofs Allowed. — _that_ is on me

yeah I guess ltac2 didn't have -q

dune 3.6.1, but I understand that's only used by :standard

ditto for theories

I've learned this by forgetting :standard a few times. Anyway, coq master replaces that by dunestrap, checking there

okay, dunestrap gets this right. Nothing to do here...

FWIW, (untested) fix for 8.16, AFAICT: https://github.com/Blaisorblade/coq/commit/cff7918c92e5fc02472414b87e5baf725bae5ba9.

Paolo Giarrusso has marked this topic as resolved.

hmm, isn't the lesson here is that we should be vigilant for any missing :standard in dune files? (Those dune that specify flags)

Please do upate the dune.disabled files we do have there however.
