#600: Cabal should use -dynamic linking for executable when package configured --enable-shared ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: juhp | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Cabal-1.8 Component: Cabal library | Version: HEAD Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion: Platform: Linux | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment(by juhp): Replying to [comment:7 KrzysztofSkrzetnicki]:
It does, actually. I've moved executable to a different directory to force GHC to use library installed in the system
Hehe, I think we agree on all points and facing the same problem: bin packages work but not binlib. :) But that's a good workaround for forcing dynamic for binlib though - maybe I should use it in some fedora packages for now.
Have you tried dynamic and shared without profiling? : It's definitely statical.
I meant something like {{{cabal install --disable-library-profiling --enable-shared --ghc- option=-dynamic}}} for your binlib package - dunno if {{{--disable-executable-profiling}}} is needed too. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/600#comment:8 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
