#7661: GHC build system does not detect opt-3.0 and friends --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: singpolyma | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: Compiler Version: 7.7 | Keywords: Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: Building GHC failed | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment(by dterei): So I'm not that familiar with the build system and m4 but looking at this. However, wouldn't a user typically install llvm on Debian by installing the 'llvm' package. This installs the tools without version suffixes. Its arguable that in the case of a user installing llvm-3.0 package and not the llvm package we shouldn't be trying to handle this for them. My concern is that I'll only be able to detect opt-3.0 or opt-2.7 or opt-3.2 by enumerating different version possibilities in the configure.ac. Which seems ugly... -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7661#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
