#13709: Drop GCC Driver ----------------------------------------+--------------------------------- Reporter: Phyx- | Owner: (none) Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.4.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Windows Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: ----------------------------------------+--------------------------------- The original reason for the Windows GCC driver was to correct hard-coded paths in the GCC build from the `msys` project. The `msys2` builds we now exclusively use no longer have these issues. Which means 90% of the reason for the driver is gone. Given the recent issues with the driver. We can/should simplify things and drop it. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13709 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
