#13472: `gcc.exe' failed in phase `Assembler'. (Exit code: -1073741502) -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: sgraf | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.2 Resolution: duplicate | Keywords: Operating System: Windows | Architecture: x86_64 Type of failure: GHC doesn't work | (amd64) at all | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: 13411 | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by Phyx-): I generally agree that we shouldn't keep updating older releases. I can apply it to the chocolatey distros but, that said, this is a special case. To emphasise the issue: In a few weeks (and at the pace 8.2 is going, likely before 8.2 is released) we won't have a single working official release of the compiler on Windows 10 at all. Given Microsoft's upgrade policy, the "Creator's Update" (reportedly build 15063) will be shoved down your throat no matter if you want it or not. We risk the situation that no one on Windows 10 can use GHC at all, which is not a good situation to be in. I'm sure the stack folks can patch their distros as well. But I think we should have at least a discussion about this, and what happens if it happens again in the future, given the much higher cadence of Windows releases these days. There are more Windows releases than GHC releases these days. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13472#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
