Hi, I'm getting the following error message when compiling a Yesod application (which uses Template Haskell rather a lot) with -fhpc: /usr/bin/ld: ./Foundation.dyn_o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against undefined symbol `_hpc_tickboxes_Settings_hpc' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC Steps to reproduce: 1. Run 'yesod init' to make a new scaffold. Call it 'testsite' and select 'simple' for no database. 2. Run: cd testsite sed Settings.hs -i -e 's/staticRoot conf.*/staticRoot conf = "foo"/' # GHC doesn't like this line ghc --make app/main.hs -XTemplateHaskell -XCPP -XOverloadedStrings -XMultiParamTypeClasses -XTypeFamilies -fhpc -O1 Running the ghc line again completes successfully. It seems that there is a missing ./Settings.dyn_o in the gcc command line that ghc calls, the first time through. It's there the second time so the link succeeds. No idea what that might mean. It's not a problem at -O0. I'm using 7.8.3 so this might be fixed now. Not sure what else might help! Any advice gratefully received. Cheers, David
