#8414: ghc-pkg prevents dynamic library only packages -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: AndreasVoellmy | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: ghc-pkg | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Other | Unknown/Multiple Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by jessicah): FWIW, I run a dynamic only installation of GHC on Haiku (no vanilla libs for GHC or packages installed via Cabal), and have not had any issues. However, I have not run ghc-pkg register manually. So maybe this is fixed? (This was with 7.8) The only caveat I've discovered is that you cannot build a new version of GHC using a dynamic-only GHC installation (see #10374). -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8414#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
