Category: Build System Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: 'Bug' when installing GHC 6.4.1 Initial Comment: I installed GHC-6.4.1.pkg.zip under MacOSX, and selected the startup volume for install. The idea is that he puts the ghc exec. and the rest in /usr/local. In my case, /usr/local/ is a symbolic link to another partition. It turns out that the installer then removes this link, makes a new subdir /usr/local/ and installs ghc in there. This means, all my other stuff has become inaccessible. My feeling is that this is a bug. I can imagine that you check whether /usr/local exists and whether it is a directory, and maybe the case that it is a symbolic link to a directory is not yet covered. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=108032&aid=1363821&group_id=8032 _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
