Thank you, if you are in Fedora you can now install this with:

`sudo dnf --enablerepo=updates-testing-modular` module install ghc:8.8`

Hmm, this appears to be a CDN issue given that the file exists on the
server and


https://downloads.haskell.org/ghc/8.8.3/docs/html/users_guide//8.8.3-notes.html

works. This is quite odd given that I am quite aggressive in purging
the CDN at this point.

I'll try to investigate tomorrow.

Cheers,

The issues with the release artifacts have been sorted out. Note that
these are new artifacts built from
d0bab2e3419e49cdbb1201d4650572b57f33420c, which is the commit pointed to
by the ghc-8.8.3-release tag.

While we typically try hard to avoid changing artifacts after they are
announced, given how quickly this issue was caught we thought this was
the least bad option.

Again, my apologies for the confusion and thanks for the patience.

Cheers,

- Ben

Unfortunately there has been a slight mix-up in the binary distributions
associated with this release and I will need to do a re-spin. I have
pulled down the binary distributions for the time being. They should be
back in a few hours.

Many apologies for the confusion!

[ANNOUNCE] GHC 8.8.3 is now available

2020-02-24 Thread Ben Gamari

Hello everyone,

The GHC team is proud to announce the release of GHC 8.8.3. The source
distribution, binary distributions, and documentation are available at

https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.8.3

Release notes are also available [1].

This release fixes a handful of issues affecting 8.8.2:

 - a compiler panic (#17429) due to over-zealous eta reduction

 - a linker crash on Windows (#17575)

 - the ability to bootstrap with earlier 8.8 releases has been restored
   (#17146)

 - the `directory` submodule has been updated, fixing #17598

As always, if anything looks amiss do let us know.

Happy compiling!

Cheers,

- Ben
