#8721: Testsuite not reporting errors for DYN way on OS X -------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: darchon | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Test Suite | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: dynamic linking Operating System: MacOS X | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: Other | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by darchon): I guess I can answer my own question, the testsuite sets up a correct `DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH`. Indeed: {{{ /opt/ghc/7.6.3/src/ghc/testsuite (ghc-7.6)$ export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/ghc/7.6.3/src/ghc/libraries/base/dist- install/build/:/opt/ghc/7.6.3/src/ghc/libraries/integer-gmp/dist- install/build/:/opt/ghc/7.6.3/src/ghc/libraries/ghc-prim/dist- install/build/:/opt/ghc/7.6.3/src/ghc/rts/dist/build/; tests/programs/10queens/10queens 724 }}} runs the executable without problems. Of course, `DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH` was never set for executables that ran "outside" of the testsuite. So in a way, the testsuite and an installed GHC were "misaligned". Seeing how as of 7.8 the testsuite and an installed GHC are "aligned", I guess the status of this ticket should be turned to either `solved` or `wontfix`? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8721#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
