Link failures using GHC 6.8.2 on OS X 10.1.11 (PPC)
This morning I downloaded and installed ghc-6.8.2-powerpc-apple-darwin.tar.bz2. I'm now getting link errors when I use ghc. For example, the simple program import qualified Data.IntSet as IntSet main = print $ IntSet.empty gives the errors: /usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols: ___stginit_containerszm0zi1zi0zi1_DataziIntSet_ _containerszm0zi1zi0zi1_DataziIntSet_empty_closure _containerszm0zi1zi0zi1_DataziIntSet_zdf3_closure These symbols are defined in /usr/local/lib/ghc-6.8.2/lib/containers-0.1.0.1/libHScontainers-0.1.0.1.a, so apparently the linker is not finding this library. The same program does work in ghci, and in ghc-6.6 (which I was using previously). I've searched the list archives, and I haven't found any mention of this problem. Any help would be much appreciated! Robin
If you're building something that has leftover *.o and *.hi files from a
previous version of ghc, that might cause the problem. Try to rm *.o *.hi
? This seemed to work for me one time.

You don't say what commandline you are using, but it sounds like you need to add either --make or -package containers. Thanks Ian

Aha, that works! Thanks. It worked without, using ghc-6.6. I guess that's because the containers stuff was moved into a separate library in 6.8.1. Robin
