The GHC developers are very pleased to announce the availability of the second release candidate for GHC 9.10.3. Binary distributions, source distributions, and documentation are available at [downloads.haskell.org][] and via [GHCup](https://www.haskell.org/ghcup/). GHC 9.10.3 is a bug-fix release fixing over 50 issues of a variety of severities and scopes. A full accounting of these fixes can be found in the [release notes][]. As always, GHC's release status, including planned future releases, can be found on the GHC Wiki [status][]. The changes from the first release candidate are: - Bumping the text submodule to 2.1.3 - Reverting a bug fix (!14291) that restricted previously allowed namespace specifiers (#26250) - Reverting the bump of the deepseq submodule to 1.5.2.0 (#26251) This release candidate will have a two-week testing period. If all goes well the final release will be available the week of 19 August 2025. We would like to thank Well-Typed, Tweag I/O, Juspay, QBayLogic, Channable, Serokell, SimSpace, the Haskell Foundation, and other anonymous contributors whose on-going financial and in-kind support has facilitated GHC maintenance and release management over the years. Finally, this release would not have been possible without the hundreds of open-source contributors whose work comprise this release. As always, do give this release a try and open a [ticket][] if you see anything amiss.
