we used redirect output of ghc via "tee" (within a Makefile). With the new ghc this randomly fails now. Does anyone have an explanation for this?
ghc <<omitted args>> 2>&1 | tee log
yields:
Skipping Main ( hets.hs, hets.o ) Linking ... tee: write error
The linked binary and the log file are ok afterwards (and the mere size of the log is also no problem).
Hmm, I can't reproduce this behaviour, and I can't imagine what the problem is: the error message claims a write error, so that would seem to indicate some kind of problem writing the log file, which can't be affected by GHC. Or perhaps that's just a generic error message from tee. Can you give any more details that might help us to reproduce it? Cheers, Simon
