Just a reminder, as not everybody may be aware yet:

There's already daily GHC HEAD packages for Debian at

http://deb.haskell.org/

thanks for the reminder. I guess I need to set up something that notifies me of failures...

Since March 27 weeks, it seems, it is failing:

[..] configure: Building in-tree ghc-pwd /usr/bin/ld: utils/ghc-pwd/dist-boot/Main.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `stg_CHARLIKE_closure' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

It looks to me like -fPIC needs to be added in LDFLAGS or wherever the launchpad build system sources the linker's flags from.

utils/ghc-pwd/dist-boot/Main.o: could not read symbols: Bad value collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status configure: error: Building ghc-pwd failed make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 1 dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2 http://deb.haskell.org/dailies/2014-04-07/ghc_7.9.20140407-0.daily_amd64.bui...

Any ideas? I’m not an expert on linker issues.

Greetings, Joachim
