Context
During the Docker container build and initialization phase, the Haskell toolchain installer (
ghcup) was failing when executing/app/autotest_server/testers/haskell/requirements.system. This failure returned a non-zero exit code (100).Cause of the Issue
The script previously passed the
--isolate /usr/local/binflag toghcup. However,ghcupincludes a strict safety guard: it will refuse to unpack assets into an isolation target directory if that directory is not completely empty. Because modern base images (likeubuntu:24.04) pre-populate/usr/local/binwith standard system binaries and symlinks,ghcupaborted with a fatal error:[ Error ] Install directory /usr/local/bin is not empty.Changes Implemented
requirements.systemto create a dedicated, guaranteed-empty subdirectory:/usr/local/bin/stack-isolated.$HOMEenvironment variable for shell tilde (~) expansion to ensure absolute home path resolution regardless of the active Docker build context.
