[GHC] #10983: Installing GHC with Centos 7

#10983: Installing GHC with Centos 7 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: | Owner: scott_wilson46 | Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Hi, I've spent about half an hour of fruitless searching to try and get round this issue. It seems that there is no libgmp.so.3 on Centos 7 so I can't get GHC installed via any of the methods suggested. I even tried building gmp from source but this only gave me a static library for libgmp (libgmp.la), so am pretty frustrated really. Any ideas on how to get past this. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10983 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

It's possible you could use the Debian build on Centos 7 as Debian has used libgmp 6.0.0 for quite some time. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10983#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
