[Hackage] #191: Hackage should check for common QA problems in ghc-options

#191: Hackage should check for common QA problems in ghc-options --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal | Version: 1.2.2.0 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.8.1 Platform: Linux | --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Simple test that many packages have is dodgy ghc-options, or options that would be suitable for development but not release. It should be easy to check for these. Suggestions: {{{ghc-options: -Wall -Werror}}} is a very bad combination. It means the package will break silently as soon as the next version of ghc adds a new warning, which generally does happen every major release. {{{ghc-options: -fasm}}} is unnecessary and breaks on all arches except for x86, x86-64 and ppc. {{{ghc-options: -O}}} is unnecessary since Cabal does that itself and it prevents people from configuring with the {{{--disable-optimization}}} flag. {{{ghc-options: -O2}}} may be necessary in some circumstances but people should not use it routinely for the same reasons as -O and since -O2 take a lot longer to compile most of the time and usually with little benefit. {{{ghc-options: -ffi}}} or {{{-fffi}}} use extensions: ForeignFunctionInterface. Once #190 is implemented then {{{ghc-options: -fvia-C}}} will be unnecessary too. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/191> Hackage <http://haskell.org/cabal/> Hackage: Cabal and related projects

patch applied (cabal): Add lots of new package checks
by Duncan Coutts 11 Feb '08

Mon Feb 11 08:28:31 PST 2008 Duncan Coutts <duncan(a)haskell.org> * Add lots of new package checks Check that Setup.(l)hs exists. Check for ./configure file if build-type: Configure Check for duplicate modules in library and executables. Check ghc-options and cc-options for -I -l -L flags that should be elsewhere Check for lots of insane ghc-options that people have used in real packages. Check for old ghc -f flags that correspond to extensions M ./Distribution/PackageDescription/Check.hs -12 +168 View patch online: http://darcs.haskell.org/cabal/_darcs/patches/20080211162831-adfee-95a3d549…

patch applied (cabal): Unify sanity and other checks and separate IO checks

Sun Feb 10 16:38:30 PST 2008 Duncan Coutts <duncan(a)haskell.org> * Unify sanity and other checks and separate IO checks And rename from QA so we no longer pretend to assure anything :-) We now distinguish different kinds of tests with a PackageCheck type so the caller gets to decide which kinds of checks are relevant to the context. This PackageCheck type should be extensible if we want to add more kinds or more info besides a brief human readable explanation. ./Distribution/PackageDescription/QA.hs -> ./Distribution/PackageDescription/Check.hs M ./Cabal.cabal -1 +1 M ./Distribution/PackageDescription/Check.hs -186 +199 M ./Distribution/Simple/Configure.hs -20 +14 M ./Distribution/Simple/SrcDist.hs -14 +21 View patch online: http://darcs.haskell.org/cabal/_darcs/patches/20080211003830-adfee-57699c5e…
