Actually, Haskell libraries ought to be placed in /usr/local/lib (or /usr/pkg/lib for systems that use the Package System: http://www.pkgsrc.org).

They should go in $(libdir), as Simon suggests. If a particular OS wants to override libdir to put them somewhere else, that's then easy to arrange.

Stefan is also correct that the version of GHC used should be cooked into the name of the shared library. So a library named foo would be installed as libfoo-ghc661.so.1, or something similar (using the soname would work too).

Good point - we should definitely do that.

Cheers,
