#11761: autoconf 2.69 breaks configure -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: kgardas | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Build System | Version: 8.1 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: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- linux ppc64 buildbot reveals interesting issue which shows as following while running configure: {{{ ./configure: line 561: save_bash_input: buffer already exists for new fd 417 }}} it looks like this issue is presented in configure only when configure is generated by autoconf 2.69. On the same platform hand installed autoconf 2.68 produces working configure. I guess this is multi-platform so I do not mark platform here. Also as this is in 3th party package I'm reporting this just for the reference of known issue... -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11761 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
