I know that GHC allows you to create shared libraries and create binaries that use shared libraries, because I asked that question some time ago on this list. However, I was wondering: can the GHC "standard libraries" be decoupled from the compiler? I.e., so you can install the libraries and the binaries on a system without the compiler being installed? I use a source-based distro so it is of little relevance to me. However, I was discussing Haskell apps online with some friends who use binary-based distros and had to admit that I wasn't clear on this point. -- frigidcode.com indicium.us
