#394: --package-db flag is not respected for compiling Setup.hs ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Cabal-1.8 Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Resolution: fixed Keywords: | Difficulty: easy (<4 hours) Ghcversion: 6.8.3 | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * status: new => closed * resolution: => fixed * milestone: Cabal-1.6 => Cabal-1.8 Comment: {{{ Sun Dec 21 18:47:55 GMT 2008 Duncan Coutts <duncan@haskell.org> * Respect the --package-db flag when compiling Setup.hs Fixes ticket #394. }}} However note that when using a separate package db then we will not look in the user package db for the Cabal lib. We probably should but that requires more changes to the way we handle package dbs.
