Hello everyone, The GHC team is very pleased to announce the second candidate of the 8.2.2 release of the Glasgow Haskell Compiler. Source and binary distributions are available at https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.2.2-rc2/ This is the second and hopefully last of two release candidates leading up the final 8.2.2 release. This release fixes approximately fifty bugs present in 8.2.1. These most notably include, * A correctness issue resulting in segmentation faults in some FFI-users (#13707, #14346) * A correctness issue resulting in undefined behavior in some programs using STM (#14171) * A bug which may have manifested in segmentation faults in out-of-memory condition (#14329) * clearBit of Natural no longer bottoms (#13203) * A specialisation bug resulting in exponential blowup of compilation time in some specialisation-intensive programs (#14379) * ghc-pkg now works even in environments with misconfigured NFS mounts (#13945) * GHC again supports production of position-independent executables (#13702) * Better error messages around kind mismatches (#11198, #12373, #13530, #13610) See [1] for the full list. As always, please report any issues you encounter.
