#8134: ghc enters a loop while building 7.6.3 for powerpc64 platform. -------------------------------------+----------------------------- Reporter: k0da | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.6.3 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: powerpc64 Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+----------------------------- Comment (by yama): This bug seems to apear on Debian ppc64 port, too. If we believe the build logs of Debian's autobuild system for ppc64, building of ghc 7.6.1, 7.6.2, and 7.6.3 with ghc 7.4.1 succeeded. http://buildd.debian-ports.org/status/logs.php?pkg=ghc&arch=ppc64 Howerver, building of ghc 7.6.3 with ghc 7.6.3 is looped. amatera+ 7318 77.5 0.4 259076 53692 ?
