#312: Allow ${arch} var in install paths ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: larsv | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Cabal-1.4 Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: minor | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: very easy (<1 hour) Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment (by igloo): Don't people with shared `$HOME`s already have ways to deal with this, e.g. passing `--prefix=~/i386` for configure/make programs, with `~/i386/bin` in their path? Wouldn't it make most sense for them to do the same for Cabal programs? And if they are doing something like that, then we won't know whether they want `$arch` to be `i386`, `i686`, `x86`, or something else. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/312#comment:2 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
