#256: Copying files during installation is oblivious to ~ ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: very easy (<1 hour) Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment (by guest): Ups, I didn't see the comment by Ross. I'd like to see an error message. I don't understand why Ross says that it's not appropriate on Windows. There is a function System.FilePath.isAbsolute which would prevent a user from specifying anything that doesn't start with a drive letter. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/256#comment:10 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
