rc2 fixes the problem with ghc-pkg check I saw on rc1. Independently it is
clear that the hmatrix package has a problem:
ghc-pkg check
bash-3.2$ cabal install -j3 hmatrix

The long anticipated Haskell Platform 2014.2 release, including GHC 7.8.3, and numerous updated packages, is almost here!
We have created "Release Candidate 2" installers for OS X and Windows, and believe, barring show stopper issues, creepers exploding, or other bizarre phenomenon, these will likely be blessed as the final in a few days time.
If you would like to be an early adopter, please try 'em out...

*Notes for RC2, since RC1:*
*Windows*
*Extra thanks to Randy Polen for burning the midnight-oil to get ths out*
- removed unneeded python (et al) files from the GHC bindist for 64-bit Windows (referenced in GHC ticket #9014 https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9014) - added HTML "view source" pages for the GHC packages that was missing from the GHC bindist for both 32- and 64-bit Windows.
*Mac OS X*
*If you installed RC1, you can remove first with the command *sudo uninstall-hs only 7.8.3 --remove
*Run it without *--remove* to see what it will do before running, it if you like. In theory you can just install this one right on top of RC1.... but hasn't been tested.*
- file layout on the Mac... improved slightly (again). In particular, executables are now installed directly in $prefix/bin dirs, rather than within the package dir - fix the bug with haddock master index not being updated correctly - works on 10.6! (and 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9) with gcc or clang based Xcodes - works on 10.10!!! (Yosemite, developer preview 4 release)
*Source tarball*
- missing sources in hptool now present - platform.sh improved somewhat (in particular, handles host cabal being pre-sandbox)
*Timetable*
- These can "soak" amongst the intreped on these lists for a few hours. - On Monday evening (PST) I'll announce to haskell-cafe and reddit - End of next week (from my vacation, I'll point out), we'll declare success and ship.
