Re: [Haskell-cafe] Can't install vector-0.10.9.1 on OS X Maverick

Well, if you meant using it BEFORE the update to Maverick no, I was using the old apple-gcc42 compiler. Perhaps that was the source of confusion :) A. On 3 November 2013 17:41, Carter Schonwald wrote:

Those are the directions for using gcc-4.8 too. I wrote them. Sounds like you were actually not using GCC 4.8 before..?

Eventually, this is what worked for me (so gcc 4.8 was a no-go for me):

Oh, before I forgot (sorry for the spam):

The above cabal cmd worked NOT in a cabal sandbox. Issuing that into a cabal sandbox still triggers the problems. I'll try to ask into the cabal issue tracker to see if I discover something.

Ok, for the lost souls which will find this thread, I've solved the problem in two steps:

a) Used the script here: http://justtesting.org/post/64947952690/the-glasgow-haskell-compiler-ghc-on-...

b) Specifically for the snap problem, I've solved it following the FAQ here: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/GHC/FAQ#I_get_an_error_message_from_GHCi_...

The command was: cabal install snap --ld-options="-x"

I'm trying to fiddle with clang scripts from Manuel Chakavarty and this one:

the former works (vector builds fine), but when installing Snap it generates the following error:

GHCi cannot safely continue in this situation. Exiting now. Sorry.

Failed to install snap-0.13.0.4 cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: snap-0.13.0.4 failed during the building phase. The exception was: ExitFailure 1

I haven't tried the latter, though.

i have no clue. Doesn't GHC also come prebuilt with Vector?

might be worth filing a ticket on GHC track too. perhaps.

Hi Carter,
