Folks,
last two/three builds on Solaris builder fails due to a reason that someone added (probably) stripping of installed libraries. My bet is on 8992d5269804b727fb77249511e89df678526907 -- hence ccing you Herbert, but I'm not sure...
The problem is that invoked strip command line is incompatible with Solaris' strip which then fails with:
strip: --strip-unneeded: cannot open file: No such file or directory
the problem is usage of --strip-unneeded command-line argument? It looks like this argument is supported by just GNU strip. Do we really need to use it? If not, removing this may solve the issue. If yes, then I'll need to come with some workaround for Solaris...
This sounds as if you'd want to file an issue and/or pull-request ASAP for Cabal 1.20 before it gets released; see also https://github.com/haskell/cabal/pull/1691 https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/1630 which were similiar issues for other platforms not supporting '--strip-unneeded' Cheers, hvr
