Print a user-friendly error message when ghc is killed

Open radix opened this issue 10 years ago • 0 comments

It seems quite common that when GHC stops with SIGKILL (exit code -9), it's because the process was killed by an OOM killer. It would be nice if Cabal could print a helpful message describing that GHC was killed by a signal, and that it's likely to be because of a lack of memory.
