Hello all,
The RC2 source distribution is here:
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/7.8.1-rc2/
Please build from it directly. It matches the HEAD of the ghc-7.8 branch as of now - e9212f0edbd3fddc3836ccded10d036c01d38505
Like last time, please include a link to the bindist, and a cryptographic hash (md5/sha1) of the tarball so I know it's OK.
Fyi (no need to mirror them on www.h.o), here are direct links to Ubuntu 12.04/x86_64 binary .deb's from my Travis-CI PPA (which are expected to be ABI compatible with later Ubuntu versions up to at least Ubuntu 13.10/x86_64): https://launchpad.net/~hvr/+archive/ghc/+files/ghc-7.8.1_7.8.1~rc2-1_amd64.d... https://launchpad.net/~hvr/+archive/ghc/+files/ghc-7.8.1-prof_7.8.1~rc2-1_am... https://launchpad.net/~hvr/+archive/ghc/+files/ghc-7.8.1-htmldocs_7.8.1~rc2-... They install into /opt/ghc/7.8.1/, therefore you just need to add /opt/ghc/7.8.1/bin into your search PATH. Cheers,
