Hi Paul. I think that the last PPC version of GHC supported was 6.4.1 (I've installed it on my old iBook G4 with MacOS X 10.5.8 Xcode 3.1) http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_641.html but I'm not sure. Try to install this version. Let me know. Luca. On May 31, 2010, at 5:46 AM, Paul Higham wrote:
I am a complete newbie but fascinated by the Haskell language. I am trying to install GHC and GHCi on an older Mac and it seems like the recommended Haskell Platform is not supported on PowerPC running MacOS 10.5.8. Is this correct?
I find that following the links on the site
http://haskell.org/ghc/distribution_packages.html#macosx
just sends me in circles so I am appealing to you for some hints as to how to proceed. I already have XCode 3.1 installed and I have just updated my MacPorts installation but now I confess I am a bit stuck.
Can you recommend a reasonable path to follow from here?
Thanx
