Package: src:kaya Version: 0.4.4-3 Severity: serious -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
Hi, as can be seen here: https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=kaya&arch=kfreebsd-amd64&ver=0.4.4-3&stamp=1267577990&file=log&as=raw kaya fails to build from source with a current ghc6-6.12. This also affects other, non-Debian-users: http://lists.kayalang.org/archives/kaya-devel/2010-January/000644.html The reason seems to be that kayac uses hGetChar to read from /dev/urandom. With ghc6-6.12, hGetChar tries to read a char according to the current locale, which can be UTF-8, and a random byte is not always a valid UTF-8 character... A proper fix would be to use hGetBuf. A work-arond would be to use hSetBinaryMode on the handle before using hGetChar.
