#11005: GHC's build system can't deal with ghc install path with multiple spaces in it -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: lowest | Milestone: ⊥ Component: Build System | Version: 7.11 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Building GHC | Unknown/Multiple failed | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by thomie): If I understand correctly, to reproduce the bug: * Install GHC into a directory with spaces. * Use that GHC as a bootstrap compiler, to build GHC again. The first step already succeeds, and the installed compiler should generally be usable, because `validate` uses it to run the testsuite. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11005#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
