[Haskell-cafe] Re: Haddock Problem
Does anyone have any suggestions or do I have to start building haddock myself? Ok I built it from source rather than using the Haskell Platform exe and it now works. Perhaps the packager of the Haskell Platform for Windows could take a look at why the binary is behaving as it does?

Is it possible that one of the Windows binary dists has a baked-in location for something on the E: drive, which existed on the packager's machine but not on the final installed machine? We are on the Haskell Platform 2010.1.0.0 and haddock comes as a .exe with it. Does anyone have any suggestions or do I have to start building haddock myself?

Here's something similar: http://trac.haskell.org/haskell-platform/ticket/119 I tried myself on windows, and haddock --print-ghc-libdir yields: E:\ghc\ghc-6.12.1\lib and I don't have an E: either. So Haddock seems to be more or less broken on windows in the current platform. David ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

Try --optghc=-package-conf --optghc=file, to point Haddock at the custom DB. Hi David, Thanks for the quick response. No dice I am afraid. Dominic.

Is it the same as the index file that cabal uses? I don't know exactly what that file is, but -B is actually for pointing Haddock at the GHC lib dir, so it's not surprising that it doesn't work. I thought that perhaps the package.conf.d file is the only thing it needs from that directory, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I think using --optghc=-package-conf is the correct way to point to another package DB, so I'll look into why it doesn't work.
