#8614: Duplicate symbol error when loading text twice -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nh2 | Owner: Type: bug | Status: infoneeded Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Runtime System | Version: 7.6.3 (Linker) | Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: GHCi crash | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #7030 | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by ezyang): OK, so I tried to reproduce with a very minimal example, using the following steps: 1. I took honi, and edited it so it had no dependence on the actual libraries. I installed it, and then manually edited package config so that it had a dependency on a non-existent dynamic library. 2. Then I opened GHCi, and induced GHCi to attempt to load the packages twice (failing because this last package couldn't load the non-existent package.) However, text reloaded fine for me. Granted, it was `text-1.2.1.3` but I don't think there is any substantive difference here. So yes, we are going to need more information to reproduce and solve this bug. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8614#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
