There are now GHC RPMs for RedHat 7 available from the download page (http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download.html). Note that (as stated there) you need to install GMP 2 RPMs if you don't have them already (they're provided). The development version of GHC has now moved to GMP 3, so we'll have this wrinkle ironed out in the next release. -- http://sc3d.org/rrt/ | certain, a. insufficiently analysed
On this subject, where am I to get the libgmp2.a required by 4.08.1 (on Linux anyway). I tried compiling the very latest version of GMP but it only produced a libgmp.a file. Is that the same? NB that RPMs aren't a lot of good to me unless they come with a hefty bribe for the hard-nosed system administrators around here.

Everyone and their brothers is patching it. I've no idea, why upstream didn't incorporate the patch... Maybe, they have done it in the new version (libgmp3)... Anyway, I attached a patch for libgmp2-2.0.2, ie. the old version...

I can't read, shoot me 8-} My internal pre-parser recognized the words "GHC", "libgmp.a" and "RedHat" in a single email, therefore bypassed the rest of the mail, and immediately sent the wrong answer... Sorry! The patch is obviously for getting a .so library...

Same happened to me. ln -s libgmp.a libgmp2.a worked for me. I satisfied myself I was doing the right thing by noticing all the 2.x.x version numbers on the libgmp source I'd compiled.
It does link. Haven't tried any fancy math, though, so maybe it's broken.

Yes, that's what I did. Probably everyone has . . . Er, isn't this the sort of thing ./configure scripts are for?
