#8986: GHC panic while installing distributive library on Mac OS X Mavericks -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: mvanier | Owner: Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.1 Resolution: invalid | Keywords: Operating System: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Unknown/Multiple | Difficulty: Unknown Type of failure: | Blocked By: None/Unknown | Related Tickets: #7628,#8626,#7603 Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by thomie): * status: new => closed * resolution: => invalid * related: => #7628,#8626,#7603 Comment: Any "bad magic" panics are most likely a result of mixing 32 bit and 64 bit objects files, see #7603. The error message got much improved in #7628 (GHC 7.8). Closing as not a ghc problem. @mvanier please reopen if you still encounter problems (after testing with GHC 7.8.3 if possible). -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8986#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
