Hi Neil, trying to build hlint does not work on some architectures (at least alpha, s390, mips) where no threaded RTS is available. An example build log is available at http://buildd.debian.org/build.php?arch=alpha&pkg=hlint&ver=1.6.4-1
This is caused by
ghc-options: -fno-warn-overlapping-patterns -threaded
in your hlint.cabal file.
Is there an absolute reason (besides performance) why hlint needs a
threaded RTS? If not, would it be possible to make this option dependent
on the availability of a threaded RTS (either by direct support in cabal
for checking it, similar to os(..) checks, or by passing a "-fthreaded"
flag to setup configure)?
Thanks,
Joachim
