#12539: Possible typo causes Stack and Cabal installs to fail -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ConorIA | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Linux Architecture: | Type of failure: Compile-time Unknown/Multiple | crash Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Hi, I have been trying to use https://github.com/thriqon/pandoc-docker or to add pandoc to https://github.com/mitchty/alpine-ghc. However, in both cases, install commands are running into an issue with the '-nopie' flag passed to GCC. The gist of the error thrown when using wither Cabal or Stack is: {{{ <no location info>: Warning: Couldn't figure out linker information! Make sure you're using GNU ld, GNU gold or the built in OS X linker, etc. gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-nopie'; did you mean '-no- pie'? ) }}} I am not sure where the error is, as I am really a non-expert. But the gcc linking option is "-no-pie", so if there is indeed an option "-nopie" being passed, it seems like it is a typo. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12539 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
