#9218: Upgrade the version of MinGW shipped with GHC -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: komadori | Owner: gintas Type: task | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.12.1 Component: Build System | Version: 7.8.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Windows | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: 9014 | Blocking: 9215 Related Tickets: #3390 #10705 | Differential Revisions: Phab:D339 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by Phyx-): * related: #3390 => #3390 #10705 Comment: I've started splitting this up to get it in:
•downloads mingw during ./configure step, instead of via explicit git clone ...ghc-tarballs.git. This is now done in #10705
•change the provider of the 32bit and 64bit packages from rubenvb to mingw-builds. By default this results in much larger downloads (2x for 64bit, 5x for 32bit), which means #9014 should be fixed first. Any particular reason why this was done? Was there anything missing from
[[BR]] the rubenvb builds? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9218#comment:23 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
