#10458: GHCi fails to load shared object (the 'impossible' happened) ---------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: rleslie | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.10.2 Component: GHCi | Version: 7.10.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Linux | Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Revisions: ---------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Changes (by rwbarton): * milestone: => 7.10.2 Comment: Actually I was wrong about the exact issue being discussed in #10442, but the rest of my comment still applies. Do you have `-fobject-code` set in your cabal file somewhere? Of course what you are trying to do should work even so, but as a workaround you can use the bytecode interpreter. You do need to build your cbits with `-fPIC` here. I thought that Cabal was smart enough to do that automatically, but I guess not? Anyways, a Cabal issue and not a GHC one. Tentatively re-milestoning for 7.10.2. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10458#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
