#48224: ghc @7.8.3_2: setting compiler.cpath and compiler.library_path is potential no-op ------------------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: howarth.at.macports@… | Owner: cal@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.3 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Port: ghc | ------------------------------------+-------------------- Changes (by cal@…): * status: assigned => closed * resolution: => fixed Comment: r138532. Turns out the compiler.cpath and compiler.library_path settings are necessary because the wouldn't find the `_iconv` symbol without them in the first bootstrapping phase. The comment was wrong, though; these settings are only needed as a fallback. I fixed the comment and switched to our copy of libffi. Thanks. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48224#comment:4> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
