#887: "cabal sdist" fails if a test suite has "other-modules: Paths_pkg" ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.10.1.0 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion: Platform: | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- For example, for the skein package I can't specify {{{ Test-suite runtests Type: exitcode-stdio-1.0 Other-modules: Paths_skein }}} I want to do so because there is a file used as test data for the tests. The file is specified inside {{{Data-files}}}. But, if I do so, I get: {{{ $ cabal sdist Building source dist for skein-0.1... cabal: Error: Could not find module: Paths_skein with any suffix: ["gc","chs","hsc","x","y","ly","cpphs","hs","lhs"] }}} Note that the resulting executable {{{runtests}}} works, and {{{cabal test}}} works as well. Note also that {{{Other-modules: Paths_skein}}} works on the {{{Library}}}, it fails only on the {{{Test-suite}}}. I've include a (hopefully) minimal test case. {{{ $ cabal configure --enable-tests Resolving dependencies... Configuring test-case-0.1... $ cabal build Preprocessing library test-case-0.1...
