All,
We've been using the cabal-install build reporting stuff to get more detailed info on build failures with ghc-6.10 vs 6.8. cabal-install generates these build-reports.log files and individual log files for each build.
build-reports.log informs me that configure failed for the lax package with both GHC 6.8 and GHC 6.10. However, lax used to build fine on my machine with GHC 6.8. So I looked at logs/lax-0.0.0.1.log but this file is empty. Why?
As Don noted, it's because it didn't even get to the stage of running the configure for the package. That's the first part where it starts logging. Yes, the logging is sadly rather primitive. Duncan
