#8820: 7.8 RC1 unregisterised fails selfbootstrap on 64 bit Linux ----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: trommler | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.1-rc1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Building GHC failed | Unknown/Multiple Test Case: | Difficulty: Unknown Blocking: | Blocked By: | Related Tickets: #8819 ----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Comment (by trommler): Replying to [comment:1 thoughtpolice]:
Isn't this the same as #8748? If so, it's already fixed in RC2. No it isn't. I'm at commit 8a2989c5df76712d5cd52ff918d4e6c1a741a90b and I managed to bootstrap RC2 up to that commit.
This ticket is about self-bootstrapping using RC2 which I did for openSUSE's ghc so far. IIRC a selfbootstrapped ghc is required because of ABI changes between releases. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8820#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
