#16325: Hadrian should respect the build root setting for the testsuite and its own binaries -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: snowleopard | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Build System | Version: 8.6.3 (Hadrian) | Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Currently the `--build-root` setting is respected only partially: * The `test` rule appears to be placing all testsuite build artefacts right in the GHC tree `./testsuite`. * Hadrian puts its own binaries also in the GHC tree, into the `./hadrian/X` directory, where `X` depends on whether we build with Cabal or Stack. We should improve on this and provide more guarantees about where all build artefacts go. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/16325 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
