#10974: Fix SysTools.readElfSection on platforms where "readelf" have different name -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ony | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: Other Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: driver/recomp011 | Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Some linux systems may use target-prefixed names for `binutils`. For example on my Exherbo Linux readelf is named as `x86_64-pc-linux-gnu- readelf`. This leads to errors like:
readelf: createProcess: runInteractiveProcess: exec: does not exist (No such file or directory)
To fix this GHC needs to give ability to configure name of this tool (like `SysTools.runSplit` and `SysTools.runCc`) or use `libelf`-like library. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10974 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
