I am not aware of any concrete plans for a 7.10.3 release. You should
upgrade to 7.10.2.

[Haskell] GHC users on PowerPC and *BSD/Darwin?

2012-07-12 Thread Erik de Castro Lopo
Hi all,

Users of GHC on PowerPC would probably be aware of this bug:

http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2972

which causes GHCi to segfault as soon as it was started.

Ben M. Collins has come up with a fix for this I am preparing it
for submission to the GHC git tree. I have have tested it on
linux-powerpc, but would also like to test it on *BSD/Darwin.

Anybody out there interested? You will need:

  * A PowerPC machine running *BSD or Darwin.
  * A working GHC compiler.

If you're interested email me at erikd AT mega-nerd dot com.

Cheers,
Erik

[Haskell] Problems with (projects|community).haskell.org

2011-02-09 Thread Erik de Castro Lopo
Hi all,

Still a couple of problems with these servers.

Firstly, community.haskell.org shows the default Apache "It works"
page. It would be nice to have something better there.

Secondly the mailman web interface on projects.haskell.org [0] is
giving a Service Temporarily Unavailable message (and has been
for a couple of days).

Cheers,
Erik

Anyone?

There is still no mx record and still nothing listening on port 25.

[Haskell] Mailing lists on projects.haskell.org?

2011-01-13 Thread Erik de Castro Lopo
Hi all,

I tried sending mail to the haskell-llvm mailing list ( AT
projects.haskell.org) several days ago and today I received a bounce
message.

Looking into the issue a little further, I find that DNS has no MX
record for projects.haskell.org and projects.haskell.org doesn't
seem to be listening on port 25.

I would email the administrator, but that is also an @projects.h.o
address and I doubt it would get through.

Posting here in the hope that someone who sees this can fix it.

Cheers,
Erik

Re: [Haskell] analogous functions in Sound.File.Sndfile

I have never used the Haskell bindings to that particular library,
but from the documentation:


http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/hsndfile/0.4.0/doc/html/Sound-File-Sndfile.html

  - sf_open seems to map to openFile

  - sf_read_short seems to map to readFileChunks

HTH,

[Haskell] New haskell-llvm mailing list.

2010-05-27 Thread Erik de Castro Lopo
Hi all,

I have set up a mailing list for discussion of haskell and LLVM related
topics.

All discussion on using Haskell with LLVM is relevant. That includes
the haskell-llvm bindings on Hackage, custom LLVM bindings and
directly generating LLVM IR code from haskell and passing that
through the LLVM tools.

In particular, this list is a place to share code, information,
techniques and user experiences.

The subscription page is here:

http://projects.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haskell-llvm

Cheers,
Erik

I ran into simialr problems some time ago and blogged about it
here:

   
http://www.mega-nerd.com/erikd/Blog/CodeHacking/Haskell/parsec_expression_parsing.html

Not sure if your problem is exactly the same, but my solution might
point you in the right direction.

BTW, the haskell-cafe mailing list may be a better place for questions
like this. It seems to have a larger readership and is more discussion
focused while this list is more for announcements.

Cheers,
Erik
