#8160: sync-all failing to detect Windows ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- See [http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-devs/2013-August/002102.html]. The sync-all script tries to detect Windows but is failing. Also when the subsequent build fails to unpack `ghc-tarballs`, it somehow recovers and proceeds, leading to obscure subsequent fallout. Can't be hard to fix; but the fallout from failure is bad. Simon -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8160 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
