In order support some older software that we released, we need to get a working GHC 7.4.2 on Ubuntu Trusty. We currently have GHC 7.8.3.
The binary tarball for GHC 7.4.2 does not install on Trusty due to multiple incompatibilities. For example, GHC requires GMP 3, but Trusty only provides GMP >= 4. Etc. I tried building GHC 7.4.2. from source on Trusty. But the process won't boot from our currently installed GHC 7.8.3. The oldest GHC binary I can get is GHC 7.6.3, which happens to be still available from the Ubuntu distribution itself (neither the binary tarball nor compiling from source work for GHC 7.6.3 on Trusty either). But booting from GHC 7.6.3 won't work either. How do I get a working GHC 7.4.2 on Trusty?
