#519: .cpphs files are processed using GHC's built-in CPP instead of cpphs ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: Deewiant | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.6.0.2 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: very easy (<1 hour) Ghcversion: | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * difficulty: unknown => very easy (<1 hour) Comment: Should be easy to switch it. Whoever does this should also test what the failure mode is when cpphs is not available and the package forgets to mention `build-tools: cpphs`. On a related note we should warn about any tools used that are not declared. Indeed perhaps we should say that packages that declare a minimum version of Cabal are actually opting in to stricter behaviour, like not configuring build tools that are not explicitly declared. Or perhaps that should be done by a different mechanism. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/519#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
