#78: Cabal fails to work when haskell-platform-2009.2.0.1 compiled with GHC 6.10.4 ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: badsheepy | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: (none-specified) | Keywords: ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Apologies if this should have been posted as a GHC bug or elsewhere.
On my (ubuntu linux) machine, compiling and installing haskell- platform-2009.2.0.1 with GHC 6.10.4 appears to work, however subsequently running cabal gives the following error: $ cabal update cabal: : openFile: does not exist (No such file or directory) rm -r ~/.cabal makes update work, but then the error resurfaces when using any other cabal option. Re-compiling with GHC 6.10.3 fixes this bug and makes cabal work again. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.haskell.org/haskell-platform/ticket/78> haskell-platform <http://trac.haskell.org/haskell-platform> The Haskell Platform: a comprehensive and robust collection of Haskell libraries _______________________________________________ Haskell-platform mailing list Haskell-platform@projects.haskell.org http://projects.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haskell-platform
