We received a complaint from one of our customers that the Linux executable for one of our products - compiled using GHC - does not run because of libgmp not being installed on their server. This binary was compiled using GHC 7.4.2 (HP 2012.4.0.0). We hope to be migrating soon to GHC 7.6.3 (HP 2013.2.0.0.). Do GHC-compiled binaries have a dynamic dependence on libgmp? If so, what are the exact requirements we need to communicate to our customers? Does this limit what versions of Linux we can claim that our product supports? Are there similar requirements and limitations regarding GNU Readline? Thanks, Yitz
