Does MissingH's cabal file have a line
Ghc-Prof-Options: -prof -auto-all
No, it doesn't. None of my Cabal files do. Could anyone confirm if this fixes it?
The rhs of the option is added to compiler command line when the --enable-library-profiling option is included to configure. Without this, the --enable-library-profiling switch doesn't do anything. (Arguably a bug that cabal silently does nothing instead of reporting an error.)
I'd argue that Cabal should make this a default. It seems silly to have to add this boilerplate code to every cabal file out there just to have a sensible default. Thanks for the info. -- John
