#12851: Regression: GHC doesn't show filepaths by default anymore -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: hvr | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.1 Resolution: | Keywords: regression 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 gracjan): I agree that this change throws away useful information while keeping in not so useful one. I would do it simpler though: If verbose, show information as it used to be show, with full paths. If not verbose, show just module name. Note that haskell-mode filters out everything after module name and this is expected behavior by newbees or when smaller projects are compiled. For more complicated projects hvr and other can increase verbosity level. I would also postulate to *not* add new flag with such low marginal utility and just use the existing verbosity level for this purpose. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12851#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
