Control: tag -1 + fixed-upstream
Control: forwarded http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/6063
Hi,
upstream has no implemented run-time-detection of the linker in
question, so this bug will eventually be fixed in Debian as well.
Greetings,
Joachim

What's the rationale for this bug being 'serious' in the first place?
That seems rather inflated to me.
ghc is unusable when binutils-gold is installed. There is no conflict
between them declared.

Do you mean that GNU gold should be bug-for-bug compatible with
the libbfd-based ld? (Then I would disagree --- for example, gold
does not support linker scripts, for good reasons.)

Based on the English language meaning of Breaks, I agree.
Would Conflicts have been a better suggestion? I marked the bug as RC
because one package is broken when the other is installed but the

I think that if people want gold to become the default linker
and for some reason don't want me to despise them, they should
do whatever it takes to make gold be less broken than

It all seems academic, though, unless configuring ghc to use ld.bfd
is very difficult for some reason.
That does seem like it could be a reasonable compromise for
the moment.

ghc seems to work just fine with real ld.
What exactly is the real ld? ghc works just fine with many linkers,
but only if you configure and run with the same one.
I'm not sure what the point of this sort of meta-questioning is,
though. If there's some practical reason for
