Package: haskell-src-exts Version: 1.17.1-1 Followup-For: Bug #832824 Dear Maintainer,
The last build of haskell-src-exts 1.17.1-1 has failed 30 days ago on a mips64el device. More information since first report of this failure have been acquired. Bug report seems to indicate that there is a linker problem during compilation, indicated by some of the last lines of the build log: "ghc_8.hc:(.text+0x884): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_GOT_DISP against `base_GHCziNum_zp_entry' ghc_8.hc:(.text+0x8e4): additional relocation overflows omitted from the output collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status" Scarce documentation documentation on the subject exists but the available syntax of Haskell does not give any control at this level of abstraction. This would indicate a compiler problem which should be reported at GHC. No "ld" options have been identified as potentially helpful for this problem. GHC has some. GHC has some specifics about package building when reporting a bug: https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/ReportABug If you need more information or have some more information about the source of the build fail, do not hesitate to write back.
