Hi
Is it just me who thinks this is a silly idea? Why should GHC include a
alternative way may be inclusion of instructions how to add c++ compiler to ghc installation - it's not trivial because one need to know which gcc version should be used and which files copied
Since I know that Bulat is the one always asking for a size reduction in the installer, why not have a minimal installer (without c++), and an extra-utils installer (with c++). Once GHC no longer requires C on Windows, we can move C compilation from minimal to extra. Of course, this requires installer hacking. Thanks Neil
