#10986: GHC should delete all temporary files it creates in /tmp -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: erikd | Owner: (none) Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.11 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Phab:D2324 Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by monoidal): I found out this still happens with Template Haskell + -fno-code. Given `M.hs` {{{ {-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-} module M where $(return []) }}} compiling `ghc -fno-code -v2 M.hs` fails to remove the directory: {{{ *** Deleting temp dirs: Warning: exception raised when deleting /tmp/ghc17992_0: /tmp/ghc17992_0: removeDirectory: unsatisfied constraints (Directory not empty) }}} -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10986#comment:26 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
