ANNOUNCE: GHC 7.10.2 Release Candidate 1

We are pleased to announce the first release candidate for GHC 7.10.2: https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/7.10.2-rc1 https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/7.10.2-rc1/docs/html/ This includes the source tarball and bindists for Windows, Mac OS X, and Debian Linux. FreeBSD and Solaris binaries will follow soon. These binaries and tarballs have an accompanying SHA256SUMS file signed by my GPG key id (0x3B58D86F). We plan to make the 7.10.2 final release at the end of this coming week - so please test as much as possible; bugs are much cheaper if we find them before the release! -- Regards, Austin Seipp, Haskell Consultant Well-Typed LLP, http://www.well-typed.com/

Right on the heels of Austin's 7.10.2 RC1 announcement we have... *Haskell Platform 7.10.2 RC1 as well!* This is the same release of GHC 7.10.2 plus a 35+ common packages and tools for Haskell, pre-built and easily installable: generic linux: haskell-platform-7.10.1.20150612-x86_64-unknown-linux-deb7.tar.gz http://www.ozonehouse.com/mark/platform/haskell-platform-7.10.1.20150612-x86... OS X: Haskell Platform 7.10.1.20150612 64bit-signed.pkg http://www.ozonehouse.com/mark/platform/Haskell%20Platform%207.10.1.20150612... Generic linux is built on a clean debian wheezy (7) system and has been tested on Ubuntu 12.02, CentOS 7, Fedora 20, and openSUSE 13.1. It should work on those and later versions of same distros, as well as similar modern distros. Note that you may need zlib-dev, ncurses-dev, and gmp-dev packaages (or equivalent on your distro). It now unpacks as an install script and inner-tarball for ease of installation. Package list here: Releases2015.hs#L111 https://github.com/haskell/haskell-platform/blob/master/hptool/src/Releases2... Notably, includes latest attoparsec with security fixes that were long missing from HP, newest QuickCheck (pulling in tf-random as well), and very up to date OpenGL packages. - Mark hashes: 7e76493728f29ec5a64c8bfe48a7242fbf96f39dba08249c425eaee26eda88fb haskell-platform-7.10.1.20150612-x86_64-unknown-linux-deb7.tar.gz 4ecc0a180786fd6780a31531fe816f2b0cd5c8f1d123cd2eef441e2ca0b81f4b Haskell Platform 7.10.1.20150612 64bit-signed.pkg
