I have a conundrum on which advice would be appreciate. Does anyone know how to successfully install ghc on OSX I've tried various binary instalation routes: macports, brew, direct binary downloads from haskel.org All have the same result. when I try to compile a basic hello world program I get Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64: "_iconv", referenced from: _hs_iconv in libHSbase-4.14.3.0.a(iconv.o) (maybe you meant: _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding1_closure, _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding1_info , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding4_closure , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding15_info , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding4_info , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding7_info , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding6_closure , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding6_info , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding8_info , _hs_iconv_open , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding9_closure , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding12_closure , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding11_closure , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding9_info , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding12_info , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding13_info , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding11_info , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding7_closure , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding_info , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding13_closure , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding2_info , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding14_bytes , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding15_closure , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding3_closure , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding_closure , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding8_closure , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding2_closure , _hs_iconv , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding10_bytes , _hs_iconv_close , _base_GHCziIOziEncodingziIconv_iconvEncoding5_closure ) "_iconv_open", referenced from: _hs_iconv_open in libHSbase-4.14.3.0.a(iconv.o) (maybe you meant: _hs_iconv_open) "_iconv_close", referenced from: _hs_iconv_close in libHSbase-4.14.3.0.a(iconv.o) (maybe you meant: _hs_iconv_close) "_locale_charset", referenced from: _localeEncoding in libHSbase-4.14.3.0.a(PrelIOUtils.o) ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64 I've triedgiong through ghcup 8.8.4 8.6.5. 8.10.2 8.10.7 9.0.1 all have the same problem. I'd be happy to build from source. Small problem: what Haskell compiler do I use? Any advice on installs that works along with any changes to paths to avoid the iconv problems would be appreciated as currently my Haskell-related activities have come to a grinding halt. Switchig to a different OS would be nice but its not a feasible option a at present.Writing a compiler is starting to look attractive.. thanks David -- David Duke Emeritus Professor of Computer Science School of Computing University of Leeds UK E:duke.j.david@gmail.com W:https://engineering.leeds.ac.uk/staff/334/Professor_David_Duke
