Package: ghc6
Version: 6.8.2-5
Severity: important
Hi Ian,
After your upload of GHC 6.8.2-5 the build daemon on powerpc tried to
build a couple of packages of mine (haskell-hsql, haskell-uulib and
haxml) but failed to build them. In the logs I see the following happen:
dh_testdir
ghc --make Setup -o setup -package Cabal
ghc-6.8.2: timer_create: Invalid argument
make: *** [setup] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: failure: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2
This will cause FTBFS on a libraries with a Cabal build system.
BTW on my AMD64 it still works fine:
arjan@reddwarf:~/debian/haskell-uulib$ dpkg -s ghc6 | grep Version:
Version: 6.8.2-5
arjan@reddwarf:~/debian/haskell-uulib$ ./debian/rules setup
test -d debian/patched || install -d debian/patched
dpatch apply-all
dpatch cat-all >>patch-stampT
mv -f patch-stampT patch-stamp
dh_testdir
ghc --make Setup -o setup -package Cabal
[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( Setup.hs, Setup.o )
Linking setup ...
Greetings Arjan

Hi,
this error has not been observed for quite a while now, so its safe to
assume it is fixed in ghc-7. Closing.
Greetings,
Joachim
