Apologies in advance if this is a known or fixed issue. Running
raco setup tests
gives the following error message:
raco setup: given collection path: "tests" is not in canonical form (e.g.,
wrong case on a case-insensitive filesystem)
=== context ===
/Users/clements/plt/collects/setup/setup-unit.rkt:493:9
/Users/clements/plt/collects/setup/setup-go.rkt: [running body]
/Users/clements/plt/collects/setup/main.rkt: [running body]
/Users/clements/plt/collects/raco/main.rkt: [running body]
This seemed crazy, so I grepped for the error message, and sure enough, I got
this :
(define top-level-plt-collects
(if no-specific-collections?
all-collections
(check-against-all
(apply
append
(map
(lambda (c)
(define elems (append-map (lambda (s)
(map string->path
(regexp-split #rx"/" s)))
c))
(define ccs
(collection->ccs elems))
(when (null? ccs)
;; let `collection-path' complain about the name, if that's the
problem:
(apply collection-path elems)
;; otherwise, it must be an issue with different ways to
;; spell the name
(error name-sym
(error name-sym
"given collection path: \"~a\" is not in canonical form
(e.g., wrong case on a case-insensitive filesystem)"
(string-join c "/"))))
ccs)
x-specific-collections)))))
… Note that the error message I saw is a fall-through case, when the given
names don't appear in the hash table. I'm guessing that "tests" is explicitly
excluded from this table some where (though it doesn't seem to be in this
file). I see a couple of possible fixes.
1) Add a new table representing collections that aren't normally compiled but
can be explicitly chosen,
2) provide a better error message by special-casing it here,
3) go back to automatically compiling "tests" :)
