That's the R_ARM_V4BX problem I mentioned here: http://lists.debian.org/debian-haskell/2013/05/msg00054.html It isn't a TH failure as such, just one that comes up a lot whenever TH or GHCi is involved. I don't know why it happens to show up in that particular place, but it's certainly possible that the missing handling of this relocation would account for more than just the GHCi-related failures on armel (not armhf). The patch in my above post should fix this, if anyone can test it. For us, it's safe to entirely ignore the relocation like this because Debian armel is (AIUI) ARMv4t at minimum anyway so we have no need for this specialised relocation that's used for fixing things up to work on plain old ARMv4. Even for upstream, I think the chances of anyone caring about running modern Haskell code on a StrongARM are pretty limited given that current distributions don't tend to support them. -- Colin Watson [[email protected]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
