Re: 8.5 build failure

Thanks everyone. I didn't expect just continuing "make" would work, but it does, so that's a workaround for now. I'll look forward to the real fix, of course. John ___ ghc-devs mailing list ghc-devs@haskell.org

Re: 8.5 build failure

One thing I should note is that I believe since the last time I'd built I updated Mac OS to 10.13.4, if that is relevant. Note that stage 1 built fine; the failure occurs about 22 minutes into a build that typically takes 30 minute on my machine. John On Tue, Apr 3, 2018 at 8:06 AM, John Leo &l

8.5 build failure

Hi everyone, I pulled from head this morning and rebased my current work on it, and am getting a build error I've never seen before. I don't think it's due to any of my own changes, and everything built fine last time I tried just a couple days ago . I'd pulled both code and submodules. I did

merge issues with new field for FamEqn

Hi everyone, Today I'm trying to merge the latest HEAD into my work on the explicit forall proposal, and I'm running into a problem I'd like help with. The changes that are affecting me seem to come from the latest Trees that Grow checkins. I had added a field to FamEqn, namely feqn_bndrs: data

Re: GHC HEAD now needs extra tools to build libffi?

I pulled head this morning and built with no problems on a Mac. I wonder if you need to pull submodules as well (which I did) or if you're missing some newly required dependency. John On Tue, Oct 3, 2017 at 10:55 AM, Thomas Jakway wrote: > Anyone else getting linker errors? >

build fail with latest 8.1 sources

Hi everyone, I'm trying to build the latest 8.1 sources on a Mac running El Capitan. I'm getting an error I'd never seen before and wonder if anyone has any pointers of how I might fix things. I blew away my GHC, re-cloned from github, reconfigured and I still get the same error. The following

Re: Bikeshedding request for GHCi's :type

Speaking as someone teaching his coworkers Haskell now, Eric's is the best suggestion I've seen so far. What I like about it: * The original meaning of :type is unchanged. * No new command is added (I prefer adding a flag to adding another command). * With the flag on, the full type is shown

type operators and colon in GHC

I sent this to haskell-cafe a little while ago but didn't get a response, so I thought I'd try here. I'd guess this is a case of the GHC user guide needing an update, but I'd like an expert opinion. --- According to sections 7.4.3 and 7.4.4 of the latest GHC documentation
