Arch sports the newest working compiler for ghc, 7.8.2. Unfortunately llvm on arch is TOO new, and one must downgrade llvm, and the llvm downgrade packages are not available anywhere officially. I, however, happen to have these packages. These are for llvm 3.4.2-1.1. At any rate, I find I'm at an impasse with both Yesod and with Scotty. Sample output is attached. There's quite a bit of success, having compiled a lot of libraries, but it fails at the end. I thought it might be a lack of memory, so I gave it a try with a 1G swapfile as well, but that didn't help. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10801 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

Maybe its a different 7.8.2. I'm afraid to touch anything on that one and cabal hasn't been updated in 150+ days. both are running arch. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10801#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

GHC 7.10.2 has been released and we even have an [[https://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_7_10_2#linux_armv7 ARM bindist]]. GHC 7.8.2 was still a bit shaky on ARM (really, so is 7.10.2, unfortunately). To confirm, you are using `gold` to link your binaries, right? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10801#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

I didn't know gold was recommended for 7.8.2. I followed the procedure here for enabling it: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Gold_linker "ghc --info" still reports "("ld command","/usr/bin/ld")". I guess that's normal? Is there another way to enable gold? When I had debian jessie and 7.10.2, "ghc --info" reported gold as the 'ld command'. At any rate, this is what I get for ld --version. {{{ [bburdette@alarmpi epicmeatbars]$ ld --version GNU gold (GNU Binutils 2.25.1) 1.11 Copyright (C) 2014 Free Software Foundation, Inc. }}} Unfortunately this didn't allow the link to work in my 'epic' project, but maybe it would if I recompiled everything. I'll go ahead with that and see if it helps. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10801#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

That ended in a ExitFailure(-11) instead of -4.

I recommend not going down this particular rabbit hole with 7.8.2 since there will not be a new release in the 7.8 line anyways (not to mention that 7.8.2 is not even the latest 7.8 release). You should try to get 7.10 working instead. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10801#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

Well it can compile 'hello world' but the resulting executable crashes. According to comments here: [https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10375], the illegal instruction error that is currently crippling 7.10.2 has been around since at least 7.8.4. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10801#comment:8 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
