[GHC] #10912: Support for out of the box static linking
#10912: Support for out of the box static linking -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: crb002 | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Package | Version: 7.10.2 system | Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- When running in environments like AWS Lambda you don't have access to basic shared libraries Haskell needs like libgmp, libffi. Need good support for static linked libraries of anything included in a basic GHC distribution. https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1032 -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10912 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

I did this with Ruby1.8 for the BlueGene/L. Biggest pain was link order. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10912#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

That's a wget from http://libfoo.org/, configure;make; make install for each libfoo.a you are missing in your Haskell dev toolchain. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10912#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
