Finally, you can have the glorious GHC in a format satisfying the discerning Mac user
Fantastic news! Thanks!
The GHC binary in the package links statically against GNU readline (to provide editing capabilities at the GHCi prompt). This is fine as GHC's BSD3 licence is compatible with readline's GPL, and it does *not* affect programs compiled with GHC at all.
Thank you for clarifying this.
The above package is for Intel Leopard... it should be possible to build packages on Leopard that run on both Tiger and Leopard. (I could give that a try if anybody with a Tiger box is willing to play guinea pig.)
I volunteer. What do I need to do? Thanks, Yitz
