But it's quite easy: just copy the .a files from /usr/lib (or wherever) and put them in the same place as your libHSpackage.a.
I managed to get it to work by following that advice, and also renaming foo.a to libfoo.a, and linking with -lfoo.
Now you see it, now you don't. :-/ * .a files in /local/lib/foo-0.0/ghc-xxxx/ -- check * .a files named libfoo.a -- check * -lfoo on the command line -- check Using strace shows that the .a file is indeed being read by ghc, but I still get "undefined reference". Apologies for being dense, but I can't seem to make it work at all. Is there a cabalized library that does this (links to a .a type C library) that I can look at? -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
