#10410: make install installs haddck.t files -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nomeata | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Build | Version: 7.10.1 System | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Keywords: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Architecture: | Blocked By: Unknown/Multiple | Related Tickets: Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Since changeset:55cdcc96/ghc, building GHC creates `.haddock.t` files with statistics. I’m not sure how useful they are in general, but they are definitely not useful in release tarballs. Currently, `make install` copies them. This affects both the binary release on the ghc page as well as distribution packages (checked Debian and Fedora). It seems these files are used by the test suite (`testsuite/tests/perf/haddock/all.T`), so probably `make install` should be taught to ignore them. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10410 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
