Making hat 2.0 resulted in a system crash. Environment: Redhat Linux 7.2 i686 SMP GHC 5.02.3 hmake 3.05

Unable to capture output. A later try resulted in "segmentation fault."

I understand that you couldn't capture the output of the first build, but can you supply a full log of the second build that resulted in a seg fault?

I tried redirecting output to a text file, but the results weren't very useful. Following is what I was able to capture from that: cd src/hat/lib; make HC=ghc all install-ghc make[1]: Entering directory `/home/bhale/dl/programming/functional/haskell98/hat/v2.0/hat-2.00/src/hat/lib' /home/bhale/dl/programming/functional/haskell98/hat/v2.0/hat-2.00/script/hat-trans -trusted -prelude PreludeBasic.hs Wrote TPreludeBasic.hs ghc -package-name hat -package lang -fglasgow-exts -fno-warn-overlapping-patterns -fno-warn-missing-methods -cpp -c -o /home/bhale/dl/programming/functional/haskell98/hat/v2.0/hat-2.00/targets/ix86-Linux/obj/hatlib/ghc/TPreludeBasic.o TPreludeBasic.hs

[ To be honest, this sounds like a problem with your machine, not with Hat, but it is difficult to be certain without more detailed information from the logs. Are you by any chance using a laptop with ACPI support? ]

Hm... Compatibility is everything for me. I'd rather have software that runs rather than something a little faster or bigger. It could always be my machine, though. Also, I'm not a Linux/Unix guru, although I'm getting better at hacking around in it and Redhat is improving from version to version. The hardware is a mid-tower with IDE (HD & DVD-ROM) a floppy. There's an extra IDE interface for an extra drive, but it's not installed at the moment. So the hardware is pretty simple and generic. Should I look for a system log somewhere? How long should it take for twin 686 (P3)'s to compile this when running at 850 MHz? No need to answer these, but I am curious. Best Regards, Byron
