RE: ANNOUNCE: GHC version 5.04 released
I've patched up an install script for OpenBSD users of GHC who: - would like to install it somewhere other than /usr/local - do not have root priviledges on their machine Note that uninstallation must be by hand if you use this script, as we bypass the pkg system. Could this be done using GHC's normal binary distribution mechanism? In a build tree you do the following: - add the line 'BIN_DIST=1' to mk/build.mk - build everything (inc. profiling libraries if required) - say 'make binary-dist Project=Ghc' at the top level - tar up the contents of ghc-5.04 and ship it this gives you a tarball which can be unpacked and used in-place or installed elsewhere in the filesystem.

ANNOUNCE: GHC version 5.04 released
The (Interactive) Glasgow Haskell Compiler -- version 5.04
We are pleased to announce a new major release of the Glasgow Haskell
Compiler (GHC), version 5.04.
Highlights include:
* Hierarchical libraries, with documentation produced by Haddock.
* New type system extensions: full rank-N types and kind
annotations.
* New heap profiling facilities (retainer profiling, biographical
profiling).
* MacOS X support
See the release notes for a full list of the changes:
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide/release-5-04.htm

How to get it
~
The easy way is to go to the WWW page, which should be self-explanatory:
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/
We supply binary builds in the native package format for various
flavours of Linux and BSD, and in InstallShield form for Windows
folks. Binary builds for other platforms are available as a .tar.bz2
which can be installed wherever you want. The source distribution is
also available from the same place.
Packages will appear as they are built - if the package for your system
isn't available yet, come back later.
Background
~~
Haskell is a standard lazy functional programming language; the
current language version is Haskell 98, agreed in December 1998.
GHC is a state-of-the-art programming suite for Haskell. Included is
an optimising compiler generating good code for a variety of
platforms, together with an interactive system for convenient, quick
development. The distribution includes space and time profiling
facilities, a large collection of libraries, and support for various
language extensions, including concurrency, exceptions, and foreign
language interfaces (C, whatever). GHC is distributed under a
BSD-style open source license.
A wide variety of Haskell related resources (tutorials, libraries,
specifications, documentation, compilers, interpreters, references,
contact information, links to research groups) are available from the
Haskell home page (see below).
On-line GHC-related resources
~~
Relevant URLs on the World-Wide Web:
GHC home page http://www.haskell.org/ghc/
Haskell home page http://www.haskell.org/
comp.lang.functional FAQ http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~gmh/faq.html
System requirements
~~~
To compile programs with GHC, you need a machine with 64+MB memory, GCC
and perl. This release is known to work on the following platforms:
* i386-unknown-{linux,*bsd,mingw32}
* sparc-sun-solaris2
* alpha-dec-osf3
* powerpc-apple-darwin (MacOS/X)
Ports to the following platforms should be relatively easy (for a
wunderhacker), but haven't been tested due to lack of time/hardware:
* hppa1.1-hp-hpux{9,10}
* i386-unknown-solaris2
* mips-sgi-irix{5,6}
* {rs6000,powerpc}-ibm-aix
The builder's guide on the web site gives a complete run-down of what
ports work; it can be found at
