That could very well be the cause. My guess is that jessie has a different libgmp than wheezy. The stuff in your .cabal was linked against the version from wheezy, but now it's gone because of the dist upgrade (of which cabal is unaware); recompiling everything and linking against the new version fixes it. If you want to be sure, see if apt updated libgmp as part of the dist upgrade. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
