thanks for spotting. I’ll wait for RC2 and report back.


By now, also sparc has tried building GHC, and it also fails:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=ghc&arch=sparc&ver=7.8.20140130-1&stamp=1391733028

make[2]: *** [compiler/stage2/build/ExtsCompat46.o] Error 1

Any ideas?

Things have quite deteriorated on non-mainstream-architectures. Maybe I
should, for the next release cycle, do a maybe weekly upload of GHC head
to Debian experimental, so that these problems are found closer to their
cause. Or hope for the builders network resurrection.

Greetings,
Joachim
