Thanks Brandon
After downloading the source tarball and doing a build successfully I
wanted to run the testsuite.
You write
- As far as I know, the test suite is normally run from ghc/testsuite.
That directory doesn't exist for me:
- pwd
- /Users/gcolpitts/Downloads/ghc-8.2.0.20170404/ghc
- bash-3.2$ ls testsuite
- ls: testsuite: No such file or directory
- bash-3.2$
so I guess the source tarball doesn't contain it and those who do a build
can't test their build with the testsuite. I was hoping I could do that.
I didn't think the libffi directories were the right place to run from but
they were only testsuite directories that the find command gave me.
Thanks again
George

I'd like to run the testsuite on macOS but I am having trouble following
the documentation at
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/RunningTests/Running
Do I need to download something in addition to the source tarball or am I
making some mistake?
Following is what I tried:
pwd
/Users/gcolpitts/Downloads/ghc-8.2.0.20170404/libffi
# doc says: The commands on this page can all be executed from the
testsuite directory.
bash-3.2$ find . -name testsuite
./libffi/build/testsuite
./libffi/build/x86_64-apple-darwin/testsuite
bash-3.2$ pushd libffi/build/x86_64-apple-darwin/testsuite
~/Downloads/ghc-8.2.0.20170404/libffi/build/x86_64-apple-darwin/testsuite
~/Downloads/ghc-8.2.0.20170404
bash-3.2$ make test
make: *** No rule to make target `test'. Stop.
bash-3.2$ popd
~/Downloads/ghc-8.2.0.20170404
bash-3.2$ pushd libffi/build/testsuite
~/Downloads/ghc-8.2.0.20170404/libffi/build/testsuite
~/Downloads/ghc-8.2.0.20170404
bash-3.2$ make test
make: *** No rule to make target `test'. Stop.
bash-3.2$ popd
~/Downloads/ghc-8.2.0.20170404
bash-3.2$ make test
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make -C testsuite/tests
CLEANUP=1 SUMMARY_FILE=../../testsuite_summary.txt
make: *** testsuite/tests: No such file or directory. Stop.
make: *** [test] Error 2
Thanks

I am happy to announce the release of the 8.2.1-rc1 source distribution

It seems to build okay for me on Fedora 26 so far.
But the testsuite completely failed in timeout: see

Cheers, Jens
