#564: Cabal doesn't use LD options when testing linking ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: igloo | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: Cabal-1.8 Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.6.0.1 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: unknown Ghcversion: | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment (by igloo): Why is the Cabal user expected to know that Cabal isn't going to use ld when doing a link test? Why is Cabal not using ld for link tests? I think the fact that there is a special flag for this case is a red herring; we might have needed to pass another flag, e.g. `--no- trampoline`, for some reason. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/564#comment:5 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
