Hi, I was surprised to find a Solaris bindist. However, on our SunOS 5.10 ./configure failed miserably. -bash-3.2$ ./configure checking for path to top of build tree... utils/ghc-pwd/dist-install/build/tmp/ghc-pwd-bindist: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=libraries/directory/dist-install/build:libraries/unix/dist-install/build:libraries/time/dist-install/build:libraries/old-locale/dist-install/build:libraries/filepath/dist-install/build:libraries/bytestring/dist-install/build:libraries/deepseq/dist-install/build:libraries/array/dist-install/build:libraries/base/dist-install/build:libraries/integer-gmp/dist-install/build:libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build:rts/dist/build:/opt/csw/lib: is not an identifier configure: error: cannot determine current directory This happens, because our /bin/sh is a "real" sh (and not a bash) that only allows to "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH" as a separate command. The next failure was: ld.so.1: ghc-pwd: fatal: libgmp.so.10: open failed: No such file or directory So I had to extend LD_LIBRARY_PATH manually (by /opt/csw/lib). After this I got: ld.so.1: ghc-pwd: fatal: relocation error: file libraries/unix/dist-install/build/libHSunix-2.7.0.0-ghc7.8.20140130.so: symbol clearenv: referenced symbol not found Which of my libraries is wrong (or too old) despite a matching version number? libdl.so.1 => /lib/libdl.so.1 libgmp.so.10 => /opt/csw/lib/libgmp.so.10 libm.so.2 => /lib/libm.so.2 librt.so.1 => /lib/librt.so.1 libc.so.1 => /lib/libc.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1 => /opt/csw/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 libaio.so.1 => /lib/libaio.so.1 libmd.so.1 => /lib/libmd.so.1 I had to give up! (I'll try to build it from sources if I find time.) Cheers Christian Am 03.02.2014 23:35, schrieb Austin Seipp:
We are pleased to announce the first release candidate for GHC 7.8.1:
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/7.8.1-rc1/ http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/7.8.1-rc1/html/
This includes the source tarball and bindists for Windows, Linux, OS X, FreeBSD, and Solaris, on x86 and x86_64. There is a signed copy of the SHA256 hashes available (attached) using my GPG key (keyid 0x3B58D86F).
We plan to make the 7.8.1 RC2 release quite soon, as we're aware of some existing issues.
Please test as much as possible; bugs are much cheaper if we find them before the release!
