#9982: cross building integer-gmp is running target program on build host -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: newsham | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Build | Version: 7.8.4 System | Operating System: Linux Keywords: | Type of failure: Building GHC Architecture: | failed Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Test Case: | Related Tickets: Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- I am trying to build ghc-7.8.4 as a cross compiler. After stage1 finishes and it tries to build libraries it detects that it can link against an existing -gmp and gmp.h (which is what I intended) and starts building the libraries/integer-gmp package against it. During the build it builds the inplace/lib/bin/mkGmpDerivedConstants binary for the target (genode) and then runs it on the build host (ubuntu linux), which leads to failure. The error emitted during the build is: "cp" -p libraries/integer- gmp/mkGmpDerivedConstants/dist/build/tmp/mkGmpDerivedConstants inplace/lib/bin/mkGmpDerivedConstants "rm" -f inplace/lib/mkGmpDerivedConstants echo '#!/bin/bash' >> inplace/lib/mkGmpDerivedConstants echo 'executablename="/u1/home/newsham/src/genode/ghc-7.8.4/inplace/lib/bin/mkGmpDerivedConstants"'

my build environment is large and complex so I'm not providing all details here, but I will be happy to provide any supporting material needed, on request. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9982 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
