[Hackage] #300: Cabal 1.2.x silently ignores ghc-prof-options

#300: Cabal 1.2.x silently ignores ghc-prof-options ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: bos | 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: | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- This one caught me out for a while. Cabal 1.2 releases accept the `ghc- prof-options` property, but ''silently ignore'' it. Eep! The bug is fixed in 1.4, but in the unlikely event of another GHC 6.8 release, it would be nice to have it fixed in the 1.2 line too. This is mostly an FYI. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/300 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects

I've back-ported the fix from 1.4 to the 1.2 branch in case anyone ever makes another release from that branch. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/300#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects

#300: Cabal 1.2.x silently ignores ghc-prof-options ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: bos | Owner: Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Resolution: wontfix Keywords: | Difficulty: normal Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * status: new => closed * resolution: => wontfix Comment: I don't think we'll be making another release on the Cabal-1.2 branch. There is not going to be another ghc-6.8.x release and Cabal-1.4 seems to be working fine so that's the release to use to get the fix. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/300#comment:2 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
