To my request on GHC-6.4.1 for SuSE 10.0
Christian Maeder
First, we install it to the system area from binary found on the GHC www page as Binary x86, Generic Linux with glib 2.3.
This binary is not for a 64 bit arch, I think.
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.0.2/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lreadline
you may try: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/6.4.1/ghc-6.4.1-x86_64-unknown-linux.tar.bz2
Thank you. I have installed it to my user directory. Now, again, it reports --------- ghc $doconCpOpt --make Main Chasing modules from: Main Skipping Main ( Main.hs, Main.o ) Linking ... /usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.0.2/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lreadline collect2: ld returned 1 exit status ----------
which ghc
/home/mechvel/ghc/6.4.1/binary/inst/bin/ghc -- this is of ghc-6.4.1-x86_64-unknown-linux.tar.bz2 . There also is visible /home/mechvel/ghc/6.4.1/binary/inst/lib/ghc-6.4.1/libHSreadline.a But it, probably, searches for shared library in other place. Maybe, we need to remove this old ghc- x86 Generic Linux with glib 2.3, to think of path, etc. We shall try. ----------------- Serge Mechveliani mechvel@botik.ru
