#161: 'sdist' cannot find some modules that 'build' finds ok ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.0 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: easy (<4 hours) Ghcversion: 6.6 | Platform: Linux ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * summary: sdist and build uses different source directories => 'sdist' cannot find some modules that 'build' finds ok Old description:

With the following project layout:

network-bytestring network-bytestring.cabal Network Socket ByteString.hscpp tests ... ...

Running configure, build and install works but running sdist results in:

Setup.lhs: Error: Could not find module: Network.Socket.ByteString with any suffix: ["gc","chs","hsc","x","y","ly","cpphs","hs","lhs"]

I added some more debug output with the following result:

Setup.lhs: Error: Could not find module: Network.Socket.ByteString with any suffix: ["gc","chs","hsc","x","y","ly","cpphs","hs","lhs"] in any of these search directories: ["tests"]

My theory is that builds includes "." among the source directories while sdist doesn't.

You can get the repo (with a possibly fixed .cabal file so you need to look at the attached file to reproduce the error):

darcs get http://code.haskell.org/network-bytestring
