What's the canonical way to install a version of ghc but not have it be the default? i.e., I'd like to try testing this release candidate but I want to have to call it explicitly; I want 'ghc', 'ghc-pkg' etc. to still be aliases to ghc-6.10.4, instead of being overwritten by the 6.12.1 install. -Brent On Sun, Oct 11, 2009 at 09:41:53PM +0100, Ian Lynagh wrote:
Hi all,
We are pleased to (finally!) announce the first release candidate for GHC 6.12.1:
http://darcs.haskell.org/~ghc/dist/6.12.1rc1/
As well as the source tarball: ghc-6.12.0.20091010-src.tar.bz2 there are installers for Windows (i386) and OS X (i386), and binary distributions for x86_64/Linux and i386/Linux. For the Linux binary distributions, the "linux-n" tarballs are recommended over the "linux" tarballs.
Please test as much as possible; bugs are much cheaper if we find them before the release!
Thanks Ian, on behalf of the GHC team
