#791: Large libraries not installable on OS X -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: batterseapower | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.8.0.6 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion: Platform: Mac OS | -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Comment(by batterseapower): OK, now I'm not sure if this is in fact a GHC bug as well, because I tried to work around with: {{{ ./Setup build touch dist/build/HShighlighting-kate-0.2.8.1.o sudo ./Setup install }}} But if I try and use GHCi it dies: {{{ *Main> :m Text.Highlighting.Kate.Syntax Prelude Text.Highlighting.Kate.Syntax> languages Loading package array-0.3.0.2 ... linking ... done.
