#7979: ./configure script does not properly detect missing header files -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: jstolarek | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: Build System Version: 7.6.3 | Keywords: Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: None/Unknown | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Comment(by jstolarek): The error message I posted comes from the ./configure script of terminfo library required by GHC. This error is generated during the build, whereas I should get that error from the ./configure script of GHC, before I even attempt to build it. GHC ./configure should realize that one of the libraries it needs requires header files for ncurses. Currently it doesn't report that as an error. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7979#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
