#11729: `make sdist` target fails horribly if `lndir` is unavailable -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: erikd | Owner: Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Build System | Version: 7.10.3 Resolution: wontfix | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: Other | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by erikd): * status: new => closed * resolution: => wontfix Comment: Not sure of this is worth keeping open. It may be possible to detect its availablity and print an error message during `make sdist` when its missing, but I'm not sure if the effort is worth it. Very few ghc devs actually do `make sdist` and those that do should remember than `lndir` is required. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11729#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
