Error building

[varnerac]

I get the following building on OS X with latest stack from Homebrew:

   stack install
    Process exited with code: ExitFailure 1
    Logs have been written to: /Users/varnerac/QuickFuzz/.stack-work/logs/language-lua-0.9.0.log

    setup-Simple-Cabal-1.22.5.0-ghc-7.10.3: The program 'alex' is required but it
    could not be found.

It's worth nothing that I set all of the flags in the stack.yaml file to true

flags:
  QuickFuzz:
    imgs : true
    archs : true
    docs : true
    codes : true
    media : true
    pki : true

Changing codes to false resolve the problem. Leaving this issue open as this is most likely a bug.

Hi,

I think this is a known issue in stack. To compile with 'codes', you need to have alex in your PATH. So you should execute in the QuickFuzz directory:

$ stack install alex

Then, you can compile this tool with 'codes' flag.

Thanks.

Btw, is QuickFuzz working correctly in OSX? We are very interested to test it there, but unfortunately MacBooks are extremely expensive to buy here... :(

So, I am working on some contributions. zzuf works , but there is an issue with honggfuzz. I am about to submit a PR to put this project under CI. I'd like to have tests and build instructions to look at in GH and CircleCI, so I am gonna see if I can but the infrastructure in place.

Oh, great!. Thanks for all the contributions! Btw, honggfuzz is not functional right now (something about filenames)...
