#293: allow installation of non-haskell or haskell script executables ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.8.2 Platform: | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Sometimes it is desirable to include an auxiliary executable, which is not written in haskell or is written in haskell, but better not be compiled and run as a script instead. Currently cabal doesn't offer any way to install such executables into $bindir. I suggest adding an {{{extra-bin- files}}} property that should be treated similar to {{{data-files}}}, but install into $bindir and take care of correct permissions. The way through the hooks is unsatisfactory, because the hooks allow no way of telling cabal what they have done. This is going to be a problem, when cabal starts tracking all the installed files for uninstall purposes.

#283: install command doesn't install dist/doc/users-guide/ ----------------------------------------------+----------------------------- Reporter: Misha Aizatulin <avatar(a)hot.ee> | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: HEAD Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: very hard (<1 week) Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: ----------------------------------------------+----------------------------- Comment (by guest): I'd suggest adding package properties like {{{extra-doc-files}}} and {{{extra-doc-dirs}}} and treating them similar to {{{data-files}}}. This way I'd be able to say that the README file along with a compilable Example.hs as well as the users-guide directory belong to the documentation. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/283#comment:6> Hackage <http://haskell.org/cabal/> Hackage: Cabal and related projects

patch applied (cabal-branches/cabal-1.4): Lift the restriction that libraries must have exposed-modules
by Duncan Coutts 12 Jun '08

12 Jun '08

Thu Jun 12 02:29:24 PDT 2008 Duncan Coutts <duncan(a)haskell.org> * Lift the restriction that libraries must have exposed-modules This allows libs that have only private modules or C code. This might be used to make libs that have non-exposed modules and only export C APIs. It could also be used to make packages that consist only of C code. That might be useful for bindings where it may make sense to split the C and Haskell code into separate packages.
