#7017: Rethink need for tarballs under "friendly" environment ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: FUZxxl | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Build System | Version: 7.4.2 Keywords: | Os: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: Other Difficulty: Unknown | Testcase: Blockedby: | Blocking: Related: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Changes (by nomeata): * cc: mail@… (added) Comment: I was just made aware of the tarballs with binary code in the “source” tarball. Theoretically, for Debian either the source of that code needs to be included as well, or the binaries removed. As we use none of the data in `ghc-tarballs`, we’d greatly appreciate a second tarball that contains just the GHC sources, and no third-party modules. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7017#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
