One (simple?) solution is to use the Nix package manager. Integer-simple GHCs were recently added (available on both Darwin and Linux afaik). After downloading the nix package manager, simply run:

nix-shell -p haskell.compiler.integer-simple.ghc802

The above command will put you into a shell with an integer-simple GHC-8.0.2

For more info on nix and haskell, this is a good guide: https://github.com/Gabriel439/haskell-nix

Along with what is mentioned in the nixpkgs manual. http://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#users-guide-to-the-haskell-infrastructure

Hi,

I would like to have an integer-simple GHC for Mac and Linux. As there is no official download for that I should probably build it myself.

My CI server is running Linux containers though.

When https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/CrossCompiling says "build must equal host", does that mean I cannot produce a mac ghc with Linux ci server? How do others produce ghc for mac or Windows?

Best
Jan
