#9445: GHC Panic: Tick Exhausted with high factor -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: adinapoli | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.3 Resolution: | Keywords: panic Operating System: MacOS X | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: | Difficulty: Unknown None/Unknown | Blocked By: Test Case: | Related Tickets: 5539 Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonpj): Urgh. I get this {{{ Resolving dependencies... Downloading SFML-0.2.0.0... Configuring SFML-0.2.0.0... cabal: Missing dependencies on foreign libraries: * Missing C libraries: csfml-window, csfml-system, csfml-graphics, csfml-network, csfml-audio This problem can usually be solved by installing the system packages that provide these libraries (you may need the "-dev" versions). If the libraries are already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags --extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where they are. Failed to install SFML-0.2.0.0 cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: SFML-0.2.0.0 failed during the configure step. The exception was: ExitFailure 1 }}} Are those C packages essential? It would be good to be able to reproduce this.... 1630 is rather big! -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9445#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
