No, of course not. Depends on architecture though. You need some runtime dependencies (libraries such readline ).. using ghc-pkg describe you can find them (or readelf should list them as well) You need ghc if your applicattions use the ghc library. Running x86 on x86_64 won't work (although you can bootstrap ghc itself using C-files only, But I've never tried this.. There is -f-viaC as well. ) Marc _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
