#8414: ghc-pkg prevents dynamic library only packages -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: AndreasVoellmy | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: ghc-pkg | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: Other | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by AndreasVoellmy): I can provide a patch to ghc-pkg to change how it validates packages. However, before I do this, I would like someone to verify that a dynamic- library only package is reasonable and should be allowed. Things seem to work correctly for me if I allow it, but maybe I just got lucky on my platform. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8414#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
