-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-13443 2011-09-29 01:05:24 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : ghc Product : Fedora 15 Version : 7.0.2 Release : 16.5.fc15 URL : http://haskell.org/ghc/ Summary : Glasgow Haskell Compiler Description : GHC is a state-of-the-art, open source, compiler and interactive environment for the functional language Haskell. Highlights: - GHC supports the entire Haskell 2010 language plus various extensions. - GHC has particularly good support for concurrency and parallelism, including support for Software Transactional Memory (STM). - GHC generates fast code, particularly for concurrent programs (check the results on the "Computer Language Benchmarks Game"). - GHC works on several platforms including Windows, Mac, Linux, most varieties of Unix, and several different processor architectures. - GHC has extensive optimisation capabilities, including inter-module optimisation. - GHC compiles Haskell code either directly to native code or using LLVM as a back-end. GHC can also generate C code as an intermediate target for porting to new platforms. The interactive environment compiles Haskell to bytecode, and supports execution of mixed bytecode/compiled programs. - Profiling is supported, both by time/allocation and heap profiling. - GHC comes with core libraries, and thousands more are available on Hackage. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Backport latest packaging changes from F16. - merge prof subpackages into the devel subpackages - built against libffi-3.0.10 to avoid "ghc-pkg check" warning - add armv7hl support (Henrik Nordström) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Sep 30 2011 Jens Petersen <[email protected]> - 7.0.2-16.5 - build with ghc-rpm-macros >= 0.13.11 to fix provides and obsoletes versions in library devel subpackages - no need to specify -lffi in build.mk (Henrik Nordström) * Wed Sep 28 2011 Jens Petersen <[email protected]> - 7.0.2-16.4 - port to armv7hl by Henrik Nordström (#741725) - setup dependency generation with ghc-deps.sh since it was moved to ghc_lib_install in ghc-rpm-macros - BR same ghc version unless ghc_bootstrapping defined - add libffi_archs - drop the quick build profile - put dyn before p in GhcLibWays - explain new bootstrapping mode using ghc_bootstrap (ghc-rpm-macros-0.13.5) - update summary and description - merge prof subpackages into the devel subpackages with ghc-rpm-macros-0.13 * Sat May 21 2011 Jens Petersen <[email protected]> - 7.0.2-16.3 - obsolete dph libraries and feldspar-language - configure with /usr/bin/gcc to help bootstrapping to new archs (otherwise ccache tends to get hardcoded as gcc, which not in koji) - posttrans scriplet for ghc_pkg_recache is redundant - make devel and prof meta packages require libs with release - make ghc-*-devel subpackages require ghc with release * Sun May 1 2011 Jiri Skala <[email protected]> - 7.0.2-16.2 - fixes path to gcc on ppc64 arch * Tue Apr 26 2011 Jiri Skala <[email protected]> - 7.0.2-16.1 - bootstrap to ppc64 - upstream ghc-powerpc-linker-mmap.patch for ppc64 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #741725 - ghc armv7hl arch support https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=741725 [ 2 ] Bug #742407 - broken obsoletes/provides in ghc-7.0.2-16.4.fc15 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=742407 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
