| 2025-07-19 02:59:39 +0200 | <geekosaur> | I don't think that's enough to tell it which binaries to use for `GCC` etc. |
| 2025-07-19 03:00:07 +0200 | <geekosaur> | also that looks like the main configure, not the bindist |

| 2025-07-19 03:02:04 +0200 | <geekosaur> | `hadrian` builds a cross-compiler and some wrappers to run it. but those wrappers don't really understand cross-compilers and will generally use host headers, libraries, and utilities |

| 2025-07-19 03:03:07 +0200 | <geekosaur> | if you tell hadrian to make a bindist, you will get a (unpacked or packed) bindist which can be installed, but it has its own `configure` that constructs the `settings` file based on what tools it finds on the system. it's not smart so it will find _host_ utilities and headers |
| 2025-07-19 03:03:57 +0200 | <geekosaur> | oh, also I think if ghc runs things directly it passes target args, but cabal doesn't know it needs to do that when it digs the invocations out of ghc's settings file |
| 2025-07-19 03:04:54 +0200 | <geekosaur> | so that would explain why ghc can build stuff itself but cabal trying to do the same will use host instead of target stuff |
| 2025-07-19 03:05:03 +0200 | <koala_man> | I do specify --with-compiler=aarch64-linux-gnu-ghc for cabal |
| 2025-07-19 03:05:31 +0200 | <geekosaur> | that's not enough, for some things cabal runs gcc directly and gets the invocation from ghc's settings file |
| 2025-07-19 03:05:45 +0200 | <geekosaur> | which doesn't have a target, as you found |
