The essential problem is that the server seems to be 64-bit SPARC while the binary is 32-bit. Since the dynamically linked GHC binary requires additional .so files to run, any libs which I try to compile on the machine itself run into ELF class incompatibility errors. So I tried installing prebuilt packages from http://sunfreeware.com/, and spent a couple hours grokking the Solaris package system before I figured out how to extract the right files. I think I have the right libs installed, but when I try to run GHC, I get this: -bash-3.00$ runhaskell Setup configure ld.so.1: ghc-6.8.3: fatal: relocation error: file /home/.../lib/libncurses.so.5: symbol main: referenced symbol not found (FYI, I got ncurses 5.6 from http://sunfreeware.com/programlistsparc10.html#ncurses.) Any suggestions would be welcome, thanks in advance. -- Elliott Slaughter "Any road followed precisely to its end leads precisely nowhere." - Frank Herbert
