Did I understand that correctly that you don't want to see binaries with rpath's pointing to install directories such as /usr/lib/gcc-6.6? So, this forces us to use a wrapper in all cases.
Please think seriously about mangling the names of Haskell libraries to include version information and dropping them in $PREFIX/lib with every other language's libraries. Haskell is not special, and users expect libraries to be in /usr/lib. No wrapper needed, no RPATH needed, as far as I can see no fanciness at all.
Actually, Haskell libraries ought to be placed in /usr/local/lib (or /usr/pkg/lib for systems that use the Package System: http://www.pkgsrc.org). Haskell libraries shouldn't mingle with the base OS libraries. But it shouldn't be separate from the other third-party libraries, either. -- Rich JID: rich@neswold.homeunix.net AIM: rnezzy
