#691: cabal-install broken after update of cabal-install
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
Reporter: guest | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: cabal-install-0.8
Component: cabal-install tool | Version: 1.8.0.2
Severity: major | Keywords:
Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion: 6.12.1
Platform: Mac OS |
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
After I upgraded to a newer cabal-install my cabal-install broke again: I
get a Bus Error when doing "cabal update" or "cabal install something".
The version that was bundled with the Haskell platform worked fine, but
now it's broken again. I'm not sure what it was that went wrong or how to
debug this.
The previous time I had Bus Errors I upgraded to the newest available
Haskell Platform release and started from scratch. I would prefer not to
do that again. However, I don't really know how to solve the Bus Error.
Does anyone have a clue where to start? Or is there a way to undo my
cabal-install upgrade?
Here is some info about my system (on OSX 10.6):
<pre>
ghc -v
Glasgow Haskell Compiler, Version 6.12.1, for Haskell 98, stage 2 booted
by GHC version 6.10.4
</pre>
<pre>
cabal --version
cabal-install version 0.8.0
using version 1.8.0.2 of the Cabal library
</pre>
I'm happy to help debugging and willing to test out possible solutions.
