#16201: ghci063 failing on Darwin ----------------------------------------+--------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 8.8.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.6.3 Keywords: | Operating System: MacOS X Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: ----------------------------------------+--------------------------------- {{{#!diff --- /dev/null 2019-01-16 12:17:41.000000000 -0800 +++ ghci/scripts/ghci063.run/ghci063.run.stderr.normalised 2019-01-16 12:17:42.000000000 -0800 @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ + +B.hs:1:1: parse error on input ‘***’ }}} The test in question is just a normal `ghci_script` test: {{{ :! echo module A where {} >A.hs :! echo module B where { import A } >B.hs :load B -- We're going to replace B.hs with an invalid module but without -- changing its timestamp.

This is currently the last issue Darwin issue keeping us from setting `allow_failure` to false so I'm going to mark this as broken. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/16201 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
