We are pleased to announce the first release candidate for GHC 7.8.1:
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/7.8.1-rc1/
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/7.8.1-rc1/html/
This includes the source tarball and bindists for Windows, Linux, OS
X, FreeBSD, and Solaris, on x86 and x86_64. There is a sign
wrt existing issues, is there a list of these so we can avoid reporting
them?
Thanks

Just to note a problem I encountered on Windows, which may well be user
error.
I unpacked the mingw tarball and added the bin directory from it to my
path. cabal install then failed with "cabal.exe: does not exist" after
producing some other output.
Running with -v3 suggested that the actual prob

Please note that GHC 7.8.1RC1 is also available for Travis-CI as part

Has anyone by chance built it for arm, yet?
I had some similar problems and had to fiddle with my DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH so
that ghc-related executables would see the libffi.dylib that comes with GHC
before any of my system-wide installed libffi.dylib.
Why the permissive @rpath link for libffi.dylib if the GHC executables are

I tried faking it, and now it's complaining about GLIBC_2.15. Seems like I
might just have to build from source on Red Hat.

You mean it's a "real" sh and not a POSIX-compatible one.

Hi Christian,
the bindist is compiled on Solaris 11.0 so probably of no use for you on
Solaris 10. Also I needed to provide separate tarball of compiled and

requirements and GHC refuses to use that...

Hi Karel,
Ok, yet I suppose that the #!/bin/sh script in ghc-pwd-bindist will
still fail for me on Solaris 10, even if I build ghc from sources.
Why was this script changed? (Or was it not?)
Is still a (non-trivial) haskell binary needed to compute the current
directory for ./configure?

I can no longer build ghc from sources for yet another reason (attached
log).
"sed" reports "command garbled". I do not even know where to find this
call in the makefile infrastructure. I suspect "gsed" must be used
instead (on our Solaris installation).

Hi Christian,
honestly speaking I've not touched ghc-pwd-bindist script at all.
Everything I did was Austin's recommended: get the source in appropriate
way, make, make binary-dist. It produced tarball and I've uploaded it.
