#24: Cabal shouldn't try to build GHCI libs on platforms without GHCI ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: jgoerzen@complete.org | Owner: ijones Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Cabal-1.4 Component: Cabal | Version: Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: hard Ghcversion: 6.2.1 | Platform: Linux ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * ghcversion: => 6.2.1 * milestone: Cabal-1.2 => Cabal-1.4 * platform: => Linux Comment: ghc-6.8 has a flag that tells us various features about the ghc installation. I think that the ghci support is one of these things. So we could support this feature in ghc-6.8 and later. If we do this, should we drop the existing --disable-library-for-ghci flag? We could keep it if we tried the {{{ghc -e "return ()"}}} suggestion. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/24 Hackage http://example.com/ My example project
