#10986: GHC should delete all temporary files it creates in /tmp -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: erikd | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.0.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.11 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by rwbarton): Okay so there are two issues here. * gcc leaves behind `/tmp/cc*` files whenever response files are used (upstream gcc bug filed by slyfox). * ghc leaves behind `/tmp/ghc*_*` directories ''rarely'' and under unknown circumstances. These issues seem quite distinct to me, and technically the `/tmp/cc*` files are not created by ghc, so I split off the first issue into its own ticket, #11476. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10986#comment:13 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
