#693: Missing instructions for running Cabal's testsuite ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: tibbe | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: HEAD Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion: Platform: | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment(by duncan): I would welcome a tests/README file. The following works for me: {{{ cd cabal/ cabal configure -O0 && cabal build cd tests/ cabal configure -O0 --package-db=../dist/package.conf.inplace cabal build ./dist/build/suite/suite }}} Due to the problem with QC, the configure step for the testsuite will warn about the fact that it's pulling in two versions of the Cabal library. Using the attached QC patch would be another solution. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/693#comment:2 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
