Re: primitive package with new Int# primops

Hi Luite, I applied my patches only to primitive package stored as a boot library in GHC repositories. My changes should probably be ported upstream to main repo of primitive package, but I admit I don't know what the workflow for this is. If you desperately need latest version of primitive working with GHC HEAD you can port my changes manually - it's only three lines of code! Janek Dnia środa, 14 sierpnia 2013, napisałeś:
hi Jan and Roman,
I'm trying to install the primitive package with the latest GHC HEAD, however the version available at
https://github.com/ghc/packages-primitive
which includes the primops changes, appears to be based on version 0.4 and is missing setByteArray. The code.haskell.org repository does have setByteArray but not the primops updates. Is there an updated version 0.5 somewhere available?
cheers,
Luite

Hi,
Yeah i noticed the patch was smaller than i first thought, so i applied it
manually and fixed it where needed. The result is here (sorry not in a
repository, just did a quick fix without making it work on older GHC):
https://github.com/ghcjs/ghcjs.github.com/tree/master/packages/cabal-src/pri...
Now GHCJS builds again :)
