#2615: ghci doesn't play nice with linker scripts
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Reporter: AlecBerryman | Owner:

Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) | Os: Linux
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
I'm trying to use HsHyperEstraier with ghci. I can compile and run the
included examples, but when I run them in ghci, I see:
{{{
$ ghci
GHCi, version 6.8.3: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help
Loading package base ... linking ... done.
Prelude> :l HelloWorld.hs
[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( HelloWorld.hs, interpreted )
Ok, modules loaded: Main.
*Main> main
[...]
Loading package HsHyperEstraier-0.2.1 ... can't load .so/.DLL for: c
(/usr/lib/libc.so: invalid ELF header)
}}}
I see a similar error message if I specify '-package HsHyperEstraier' on
the command line.
I did some looking and came up with these messages:
http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/glasgow-haskell-
users/2004-May/006632.html
http://www.nabble.com/RE:-idea-to-allow-ghci-to-use-a-different-libs-
list-p1830432.html
Debian's /usr/lib/libc.so is indeed a GNU linker script, not an actual
shared library. If I remove all the libraries in HsHyperEstraier's
~/.ghc/.../package.conf that are linker scripts (pthreads and c), it loads
up fine.
Could ghci either recognize or ignore linker scripts?
