Hello,

Further on my static linking woes:

debian ~$ ghc --version The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.8.2 -debian ~$ cat T.hs main :: IO () main = putStrLn "Hello world" -debian ~$ ghc -optl-static -static --make T.hs Linking T ... /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.2.3/../../../../lib/librt.a(timer_create.o): In function `timer_create': (.text+0x107): undefined reference to `pthread_once' ... < references to missing pthread symbols >

Does anyone have static linking working for GHC 6.8.2 and can inform me of the magic incantation? "Get the latest development version from darcs", perhaps?

BTW when I said "move to the end", I meant "move to the end of -l flags".

We may need to tweak the order of the libraries in rts/package.conf.in (this is where -lrt comes from). The question is, do we need a configure test? Cheers, Simon

Hello,

I am having a bit of trouble static linking my program using GHC 6.8.2.

In brief: "rt" uses "pthread", but -lrt is the final thing on the command line passed to the linker, and so the pthread symbols are not resolved. Manually moving -lpthread to the end of the collect2 command line does the trick.

The question is how to do this using ghc.

This is on Debian, using the 6.8.2-5 from unstable.

I can provide the command lines if that is helpful.

Note the same setup worked fine under GHC 6.6.1.

cheers peter
