The MinGHC alternative has a link to MinGHC-<br>| 7.8.3 installer. Should this be updated to MinGHC-7.8.4? I ask this<br>| because Long Term Support Haskell 2.3 is now using GHC 7.8.4. If you want<br>| to update the link, you only need to change the URL from 7.8.3 to 7.8.4.<br>| <br>| Howard<br>| _______________________________________________<br>| Haskell mailing list<br>| Haskell@haskell.org<br>| http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haskell<br>_______________________________________________<br>ghc-devs mailing list<br>ghc-devs@haskell.org<br>http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>ghc-devs mailing list<br>ghc-devs@haskell.org<br>http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs<br></div></div></div>
