tl;dr: If you would like to produce a binary distribution for GHC 8.0.1-rc4 then let us know, grab the source distribution and start building. The binary distributions will be all released one week from today.
Hello GHC packagers,
I am happy to announce the release of the 8.0.1-rc4 source distribution to binary packagers. This release should resolve all of the issues noted in the release candidate 3 announcement. You will find the usual artifacts at
http://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.0.1-rc4/
For this candidate we are again following our new release policy [1], with a one-week delay between the release of the source and binary distributions. The goal of this policy is to give all platforms the opportunity for support from the first day of a release.
If all of the expected binary releases are submitted before the week-long delay has elapsed, we will move forward with the release of the binaries on an accelerated schedule. It would be appreciated if you could reply to this message confirming that you intend to offer a binary distribution this release.
Otherwise, let either Austin or I know if you have any trouble building your distribution. I have yet to push the ghc-8.0.1-rc4 tag in case we encounter unexpected issues but all of my builds with this tarball thusfar have gone quite well.
Good luck and thanks for all of your work!
Cheers,
- Ben
