#12443: DEFAULT_TMPDIR is documented, but doesn't exist -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: rwbarton | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Documentation | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: Documentation Unknown/Multiple | bug Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- The user's guide claims {{{ Even better idea: Set the :envvar:`DEFAULT_TMPDIR` :command:`make` variable when building GHC, and never worry about :envvar:`TMPDIR` again. (see the build documentation). }}} But only vestiges of this functionality remain in `mk/config.mk.in` and in `nofib`, and it doesn't appear to actually do anything. I suggest removing it from the documentation. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12443 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
