Re: Old build system broken

Yeah so what I did is making settings no longer be created directly by configure, but by make and hadrian. I did this because I'm moving configurations options from Config.hs to there, Config.hs was generated by make and hadrian, and the whole thing will become stage-specific. I tried do mimic what hadrian/make for `Config.hs` and the various header files like `ghcplatform.h`, but evidently I missed how those are invalidated / cleaned up (unless they change so infrequently that cleaning up never worked). I'm happy to make the fix (especially as I hope to change `settings` some more), but I would appreciate some advise from people in the know about how the cleaning ought to work. I suspect the cleaning with both build systems is broken. Sorry for the disruption, John On 5/8/19 4:33 PM, Richard Eisenberg wrote:

Some discussion on IRC with @Ericson2314 reveals that make maintainer-clean is not deleting settings files, which cause this bug. If you do a fresh checkout and build, the problem should go away. It's also possible that deleting inplace/lib/settings manually (and then running ./configure) may also fix it.

Me too. I'm on a Mac. Deepest apologies (because I know this makes me useless), but I don't have the error message any more. It mentioned "Tables next to code" and the settings file, so I'm confident that it's related.

Also, reverting 1aad97887747c351727ebd7b85217f2666f5b835 fixed the problem for me.

Sorry to hijack the thread, I get something very similar on ppc64le linux:

this is from today's HEAD.

Thanks, Karel

That looks like stage1 has been improperly configured.
