Hello everyone, The GHC team is proud to announce the first release candidate of 8.4.2. the source distribution, binary distributions, and documentation are available at https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.4.2-rc1 This release follows so closely to 8.4.1 due to a number last-minute bug-fixes that didn't quite make it into 8.4.1. This includes fixes for: * #14705, the interpreter being broken on some systems * #14779, where the compiler produces invalid code when used with -g * #14891, where a selection of GHC testsuite cases fail on OS X * #5129, where the simplifier would incorrectly reorder evaluation in under some conditions. Since this is a relatively small bugfix release we are bypassing the alpha releases and moving right to the release candidate stage. If all goes well the final release will be cut next week. Happy testing Cheers, - Ben
Thanks for the announcement, Ben. Since cabal-install 2.2 was just released, we were planning a new Haskell Platform release Any Day Now (tm). But given the impending 8.4.2 release, I think we will hold off until it lands.

Yes, I think that is probably best; 8.4.1 is just broken enough that I would prefer if we would avoid pushing it out any more widely than necessary. Cheers, - Ben

Hi! Unfortunately, this release candidate cannot build order-maintenance-0.2.1.0. When trying, the “impossible” happens. The full output is below. I’ll file a bug report soon. Any chance that this will be fixed before the 8.4.2 release? All the best, Wolfgang Full output:

The ticket number is #15005. By the way, this problem also exists with GHC 8.4.1. All the best, Wolfgang
