[Hackage] #241: The Make build-type doesn't pass haddock options to make

#241: The Make build-type doesn't pass haddock options to make ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: ross@soi.city.ac.uk | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.8.2 Platform: | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- The Simple build-type works out the correct options for haddock, including the extra options for haddock2 and --read-interface options taking into account the --html-location option. For example this is used by hackageDB to generate correct inter-package links. There is no way for the makefile to figure out where those links should point. (e.g. the wxcore package.) The Make build-type ought to put these options in a HADDOCKOPTS setting on the make command line, so that the makefile can pass these to haddock. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/241 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects

I'm not quite clear about what the other options should be.
Probably just about everything except -o and possibly -h. But I'm not sure the Make build-type can ever be made to work properly (Custom even more so, of course). I think we need a build type that is mostly Simple, but with program hooks (as Configure does for postConfig). -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/241#comment:2 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
