I'm getting a weird build error: [ 9 of 95] Compiling Plugin.Pl.Common ( Plugin/Pl/Common.hs, dist/build/lambdabot/lambdabot-tmp/Plugin/Pl/Common.o ) /tmp/ghc52608_0/ghc52608_0.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ghc52608_0/ghc52608_0.s:36:0: Error: unassigned file number 1 [... more of these ...]
I narrowed this down -- this happens when I add my new library "silc-client" to the "Build-depends:" line in the cabal file even if none of its code is referenced. Removing the dependency makes the error go away. The module I'm referencing is a new one I'm still working on and it makes use of FFI and references external headers and libraries. (I put a copy at http://www.thenewsh.com/~newsham/silc-client.tgz if it helps anyone debug.. this is not release-quality code though).
Any idea what is going on here?
This would probably be a better question for ghc-users, since that's a lower-traffic list for GHC-specific questions. Redirected there.
