#9012: HPC is broken (relocation R_386_GOTOFF against undefined symbol can not be used when making a shared object) -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: Feuerbach | Owner: Type: bug | Status: patch Priority: high | Milestone: 7.8.4 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by rwbarton): I don't understand how one is supposed to actually use these HPC libraries as the `.mix` files don't seem to be installed anywhere by cabal. What are the people who encounter this issue actually trying to do? I did manage to do some manual tests and noticed a difference in behavior between the static and dynamic libraries: there are more packages included in the `.tix` file with the dynamic libraries. I don't understand why or know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9012#comment:9 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
