#4022: GHC Bindist is Broken on FreeBSD/amd64
--------------------------------------------+-------------------------------
Reporter: pgj | Owner: igloo
Type: bug | Status: patch
Priority: normal | Milestone: 6.12.3
Component: libraries (other) | Version: 6.13
Keywords: GMP,integer-gmp, sharedlibs | Difficulty:
Os: FreeBSD | Testcase:
Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) | Failure: Building GHC failed
--------------------------------------------+-------------------------------
Comment(by pgj):
Okay... It seems to problem is that the support for setting "custom"
include and library directories for GMP disappeared (as far as I recall,
you can set it for GHC 6.10.4). I created a patch to handle --with-gmp-
includes and --with-gmp-libraries so integer-gmp picks up the local GMP.
It should work everywhere, no more platform-dependent hacks.
However, that also implies the compilation of the bundled GMP library is
broken for 64 bits. I hope you will like this patch :P Note to Ian: so,
for the GHC build slaves it requires these flags to be added for the
configure script as well.
