#7885: LLVM build broken --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: gmainland | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: Compiler (LLVM) Version: 7.7 | Keywords: Os: Linux | Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) Failure: Building GHC failed | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: #7694, #7874 --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment(by gmainland): Unfortunately, a git hash of the ghc repository is not a complete repository state---one also needs the hashes of all the library repositories too (see utils/fingerprint.py, http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/GettingTheSources#Tracking...). The LLVM 3.2 bootstrap bug prevents ghc from even building. Is that not the failure you are seeing? It looks like you are just seeing some tests fail. The reported bootstrap failure occurred on Linux x64, so you may not see it at all. For reference, here is the log of the failed perf-llbm build from April 21: http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-builds/2013-April/000808.html It contains a fingerprint, so you can completely reproduce the checkout state and see if that version of GHC+libraries bootstraps with LLVM 3.2 for you on Mac OS X. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7885#comment:12 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
