#648: Cabal incorrectly reports missing C library IL ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: GregoryWeber | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.6.0.1 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion: Platform: Linux | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * owner: kmcallister => * status: assigned => new Comment: The more common problem reported in #532 is now fixed. The specific instance of the problem here is with libraries. The linking failing usually but not always means the library is missing. As in this case it can be that dependent C libs (eg pthread) have not been listed. The error message for the linking failing case should be adjusted similarly to the header check to indicate it may be bad, and to re-run with -v3 for the full linker error. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/648#comment:5 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
