Re: [GHC] #2257: validate hangs in configure
#2257: validate hangs in configure Can you attach the exact program (using nanosleep) that's being run, and the command line used to build and run it please? Done. And can you check that `timer_delete` succeeds (it should return 0). No time; have to run to an appointment.

bug in GHC master Makefile
'make uninstall' silently does nothing: : [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10261 ; make -n uninstall for i in ; do \ if test $i; then\ echo rm -f /usr/local/bin/`basename $i`;\ rm -f /usr/local/bin/`basename $i`; \ fi; \ done for i in ; do \ if test $i; then\ echo rm -f /usr/local/lib/ghc-6.5/`basename $i`; \ rm -f /usr/local/lib/ghc-6.5/`basename $i`;\ fi; \ done for i in ; do\ if test $i; then\ echo rm -f /usr/local/lib/ghc-6.5/`basename $i`;\ rm -f /usr/local/lib/ghc-6.5/`basename $i`; \ fi; \ done for i in ; do\ if test $i; then\ echo rm -f /usr/local/share/ghc-6.5/`basename $i`; \ rm -f /usr/local/share/ghc-6.5/`basename $i`; \ fi; \ done There's such a twisty little maze of includes that I didn't even try to fix this one myself. Presumably to one who knows, the fix will be obvious. Norman P.S.

ghci and terminal settings
Folks, I think maybe ghci is scrambling my terminal settings under Linux. I hear if I send you some mail, I may get some useful information. Norman ___ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
Re: trouble with Debian package ghc5
However, it seems you are right: whenever _some_ ghc package needs util, it will implicitly depend on libreadline being installed, even if readline is never really linked to. So, what can be done? The hot-fix is to install libreadline4-dev. Done. Works. Thanks. I _could_ make readline a hard dependency of ghc, but this is somehow not satisfactory. I'd rather like readline to be out-factored to its own package (I know, this would break other Haskell programs, but it's arguably easy-to-fix breakage...). Comments? For a newbie like me, it would be useful to have a `virtual' package ghc-util for `ghc programs that need util'. This could then require libreadline4-dev. The key is that something show up in dpkg --list ghc* Otherwise the need for libreadline4-dev is not obvious to the amateur.

trouble with Debian package ghc5
I'm trying to compile some Haskell code using Debian package ghc5, and it fails to find -lreadline at link time. Looks like a config problem because hte library is sitting there in /lib. I'm cc-ing the GHC bug list even though this looks to me like a Debian problem. Hope this info is what you need.
