Hi,
for yet unknown reasons, at least the unix library in ghc recently
got a new "ABI hash", which requires bumps to either some hs-packages
or to ghc itself. I prefer the latter and will also update the
bootstrapper (see recent commit to lang/ghc; if some developer could
waste some cycles on i386 to build a bootstrapper, please let me
know).
Anyway, I'm curious what caused the change. If anyone with a
not-quite-current amd64 (say, two or three weeks old) could build
lang/ghc and send me the full build log, I'd be glad.
Your system would probably be "old enough" if
ghc-pkg list -v unix
lists
unix-2.4.2.0-c912ec30ca1e7b6067d14990189a1353
If you already have the new version installed, it would be
unix-2.4.2.0-ede8c1b2fd228f3f436412134498aafc
(on amd64)
Ciao,
Kili
