We are pleased to announce the first (and hopefully only) release<br>
candidate for GHC 7.10.3:<br>
<br>
<a href="https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/7.10.3-rc1/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/7.10.3-rc1/</a><br>
<br>
This includes the source tarball and bindists for 64-bit and 32-bit<br>
modern Linux (GMP 5.0 or later) and Windows. These binaries and tarballs<br>
have an accompanying SHA256SUMS file signed by my GPG key id<br>
(0x97DB64AD). As always, our content delivery network tends to be a bit<br>
slow on the uptake. If you see an empty directory at this URL just add a<br>
few superfluous slashes to the end; this is typically enough to fool it.<br>
<br>
The 7.10.2 release was well-behaved save a couple notable bugs; while we<br>
have merged a good number of bug fixes in 7.10.3 they were were<br>
largely low risk and so we expect that this release should be<br>
similiarly stable.<br>
<br>
The one exception to this is an upgrade of the Windows compiler<br>
toolchain to GCC 5.2. Windows users have been long suffering at the hand<br>
of our old toolchain (e.g. lack of response file support, #8596, and<br>
lack of SEH support) so we expect that this change should fix far more<br>
than breaks.<br>
<br>
We plan to make the 7.10.3 release sometime next week.<br>
<br>
Please test this as much as possible; bugs are much cheaper if we find<br>
them before the release and this will ideally be the last release of the<br>
7.10 series.<br>
<br>
Happy testing,<br>
<br>
- Ben<br>
