#6086: Cross compilation fails using system linker for other architecture binaries ----------------------------------------------+--------------------------- Reporter: mtjm | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: 7.8.4 Component: Build System | Version: 7.8.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Linux | Architecture: arm Type of failure: Building GHC failed | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: 9421 | Related Tickets: Differential Revisions: | ----------------------------------------------+--------------------------- Comment (by rwbarton): It does. Probably you have gotten your non-submodule subrepositories into an inconsistent state, something which is easy to do when checking out 7.8. The reliable way to check out 7.8 correctly is to start with a fresh clone: {{{ git clone -b ghc-7.8 git://git.haskell.org/ghc.git cd ghc ./sync-all get -b ghc-7.8 }}} Sorry the wiki can be unclear in places... -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/6086#comment:16 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
