ANNOUNCE: GHC 7.6.2 Release Candidate 1
We are pleased to announce the first release candidate for GHC 7.6.2: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/7.6.2-rc1/ This includes the source tarball, installers for Windows, and bindists for Windows, Linux, OS X and FreeBSD, on x86 and x86_64. We plan to make the 7.6.2 release early in 2013. 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

Here's the list of bugs fixed in 7.6.2, assuming we've been good about assigning milestones correctly (i.e. there might be one or two missing): http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/query?status=closed&status=new&order=id&col=id&col=summary&col=milestone&col=status&col=owner&col=component&col=version&milestone=7.6.2&desc=1&resolution=fixed Cheers, Simon

I tried to build the source tarball on Mac OS X 10.5.8. I used GHC 7.6.1, which I also built myself (without any problem) and installed in /Library/Frameworks/GHC.framework/Versions/7.6.1/usr. I got this: HC [stage 0] ghc/stage1/build/hschooks.o ghc/hschooks.c:36:0: error: conflicting types for ‘StackOverflowHook’ /Library/Frameworks/GHC.framework/Versions/7.6.1/usr/lib/ghc-7.6.1/include/rts/Hooks.h:21:0: error: previous declaration of ‘StackOverflowHook’ was here make[1]: *** [ghc/stage1/build/hschooks.o] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 Regards, Sean

Thanks for the report! I've fixed it in the 7.6 branch. Thanks Ian
Hi Ian
This bug is still present in mainline. Any chance of it being fixed?
Cheers,
David

oh, is GHC about to have a feature where, upon a compiler error, it will ask the user „would you like me to ask on stack overflow about this for you?“? Very cool! Are we going to see a GoogleHock, HayooHock, HaskellCafeHook and ComplainOnTwitterHook as well?

I've just built HEAD with 7.6.2, so I think this has been fixed. If not, please give me more details on how to reproduce it. Thanks Ian

Thanks, I've merged it to the 7.6 branch now. Thanks Ian
Sorry rather late follow up:

BTW the ghc-7.6 source tarballs are huge: does x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc-4.6.3-release-win64_rubenvb.tar.bz2 (81MB) really need to be included?? Today I did a basic test build on Fedora 18 x86_64 which looked okay. I uploaded the src rpm file if others want to try to build and play with it: http://petersen.fedorapeople.org/ghc-7.6/ghc-7.6.1.20121207-10.1.fc19.src.rp... (It should be built with: http://petersen.fedorapeople.org/ghc-7.6/ghc-rpm-macros-0.976.5-1.fc19.src.r... for correct package interdependency generation.) Jens

Also successfully did a test build on Fedora Rawhide ARM: http://arm.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=140431 Jens

Sorry, the correct url is: http://arm.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1404311 (this build is against ghc-7.4.2 btw).
Hi Ian,
Please test as much as possible; bugs are much cheaper if we find them before the release!
A good news is that GHC 7.6.2 can be compiled on FreeBSD 9.1. But this problem exists: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7592 Typing "gmake -j10" again completes the building. A bad new is that test is not completed. - Compiling T5001 uses CPU 100% - signals004 is waiting for something forever Killing these two processes completes tests. The result is as follows: Unexpected failures: ../../libraries/base/tests/Concurrent Chan002 [bad exit code] (normal) ../../libraries/directory/tests getPermissions001 [bad exit code] (normal) ../../libraries/process/tests 3994 [bad exit code] (threaded1) ../../libraries/unix/tests signals004 [bad exit code] (normal) ../../libraries/unix/tests/libposix posix004 [bad exit code] (normal) ../../libraries/unix/tests/libposix posix005 [bad stdout] (normal) concurrent/should_run conc070 [bad exit code] (ghci) driver dynHelloWorld [bad exit code] (dyn) dynlibs T3807 [bad exit code] (normal) dynlibs T5373 [bad stdout] (normal) ffi/should_run 4038 [bad exit code] (normal) perf/compiler T3294 [stat too good] (normal) perf/compiler T6048 [stat not good enough] (optasm) perf/haddock haddock.Cabal [stat not good enough] (normal) perf/haddock haddock.base [stat not good enough] (normal) perf/haddock haddock.compiler [stat not good enough] (normal) plugins plugins01 [bad exit code] (normal) plugins plugins02 [stderr mismatch] (normal) plugins plugins03 [stderr mismatch] (normal) rts T2615 [bad stdout] (normal) rts derefnull [bad exit code] (normal) rts divbyzero [bad exit code] (normal) rts exec_signals [bad stdout] (normal) safeHaskell/check/pkg01 ImpSafeOnly01 [exit code non-0] (normal) safeHaskell/check/pkg01 ImpSafeOnly02 [exit code non-0] (normal) safeHaskell/check/pkg01 ImpSafeOnly03 [stderr mismatch] (normal) safeHaskell/check/pkg01 ImpSafeOnly04 [exit code non-0] (normal) safeHaskell/check/pkg01 ImpSafeOnly04 [exit code non-0] (normal) safeHaskell/check/pkg01 ImpSafeOnly05 [stderr mismatch] (normal) safeHaskell/check/pkg01 ImpSafeOnly06 [exit code non-0] (normal) safeHaskell/check/pkg01 ImpSafeOnly07 [stderr mismatch] (normal) safeHaskell/check/pkg01 ImpSafeOnly08 [stderr mismatch] (normal) safeHaskell/check/pkg01 ImpSafeOnly09 [stderr mismatch] (normal) safeHaskell/check/pkg01 ImpSafeOnly10 [exit code non-0] (normal) safeHaskell/check/pkg01 safePkg01 [bad exit code] (normal) --Kazu
