Another proposal here: http://is.gd/EbUJXu-
That seems a good solution. I have 2 suggestions:
- Remove the `chrpath` dependency which is not needed - Use a ${_ghcversion}="ghc-7.6.3" variable to replace in > text "mkdir ${pkgdir}/usr/lib/ghc-7.6.3/shared" <$> > text "(cd ${pkgdir}/usr/lib/ghc-7.6.3/shared;" <$> > text " for f in $(find .. -name \\*-ghc7.6.3.so); do" <$>
But that's just cosmetic :-)
I think it is time now to test all this from A to Z! So I would suggest to also create a `dynlinking` branch on the `habs` repository that would contain the GHC's changes (add a `haskell.conf` file, add a call to `ldconfig` in the PKGBUILD). This will let people (or at least us, I don't know if any other person is following this thread ;) the opportunity to test the proposal completely, from the build of GHC to the use of built executables and libraries, with both habs and cblrepo proposed changes.
I'm currently attempting to re-build all of the packages with these changes in place. You can try them out by adding the following (temporary) repo: [haskell-testing] Server = http://xsounds.org/~haskell/testing/\$arch /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled. -- R.P.
