Hrm, that's very odd. Cabal does not use cpphs by default with ghc. ppCpp' extraArgs bi lbi = case compilerFlavor (compiler lbi) of GHC -> ppGhcCpp (cppArgs ++ extraArgs) bi lbi _ -> ppCpphs (cppArgs ++ extraArgs) bi lbi Can you please file a ticket with all the details to reproduce so we do not forget. I'd try and reproduce it myself now but I'm, trying to build all of hackage three ways so I don't want to mess up my configuration. Duncan

The most recent release is 1.5, and it has many small bugfixes over 1.1, including some to do with preprocessing .hsc files. Regards, Malcolm

[Hackage] #367: merge cabal home page and hackage intro page

#367: merge cabal home page and hackage intro page ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: miscellaneous | Version: Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.8.2 Platform: | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Currently nobody finds the cabal user guide or the other useful info on the cabal home page. The links on how to install and create cabal packages should be moved to the hackage info page. Generally there are too many places to find mostly the same information. We've got the hackage pages, the hackage wiki and the cabal web site. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/367> Hackage <http://haskell.org/cabal/> Hackage: Cabal and related projects

The exception was: > exit: ExitFailure 1 I don't understand this: unix-compat depends on old-time (if I trust http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/unix-compat-0.1.…) so this should be made visible by cabal. There might be an issue with pre-processing, but that's beyond my cabal knowledge. Maybe some cc'ed wizards can help :) Cheers, -- JP
