[Fedora-haskell-list] Fwd: ghc-6.8.3-10.fc9 successfully moved from dist-f9-updates-candidate into dist-f9-updates-testing by bodhi

[Jens-Ulrik Petersen]

Hi Haskell SIG,

If you could please test this build before we push it to f9 update final that would be appreciated.

Until the package reaches updates-testing mirrors you can grab it from http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/ghc/6.8.3/10.fc9/

The package is essentially the same as the the package currently in rawhide for f10, the only difference being the dummy ghc682-prof package designed to prevent bug 467893 (yum cycling between ghc-prof and ghc682-prof due to bad packaging).

Cheers, Jens

ps If you have packager status you should also be able to vote for the update (ie give it karma) in Bodhi: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/ghc-6.8.3-10.fc9, otherwise if I don't hear of any problems by the end of this week I will go ahead and request the push to updates final.

Works on my machine (TM).

If you're running rawhide, there's a candidate build of GHC 6.10.1 now
available:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=68605

It mostly works, but ghci's editline/libedit support is busted, and I do not
yet know why.

Thanks for testing and the karma: one more vote and it will go straight to updates-final (though it hasn't actually reached the updates-testing repo yet...).

Thanks - I think the f11 builds should work fine on f9 (and f10) too btw.

Yes I see that too (also with readline).
