#9625: ghc: panic using --enable-executable-dynamic -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: CoreyOConnor | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Unknown/Multiple Difficulty: Unknown | Type of failure: Compile- Blocked By: | time crash Related Tickets: | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- (from: https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/2039) Using --enable-executable-dynamic leads to a ghc panic. Reproduction steps: 1. clone https://github.com/coreyoconnor/executable-dynamic-issue 2. cabal configure --enable-tests --enable-executable-dynamic 3. cabal test Expected results: Test executes and passes. Actual results: {{{ ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened) (GHC version 7.8.2 for x86_64 -unknown-linux): Don't understand library name verify-foo }}} Actual results varies based on the name of "verify-foo" test suite. Other names tried: "verifyFoo", "VerifyFoo". All of which also fail. Removing "--enable-executable-dynamic" results in a pass regardless of test suite name. Reproduced on GHC 7.8.2, GHC 7.8.3, Cabal 1.18, Cabal 1.20. Ubuntu. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9625 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
