--- Comment #5 from Jens Petersen <petersen at redhat.com> ---
Okay sorry for the long pause.

I tried building with 1GB heap with the change below
but it still fails in the same way.

[ 1 of 22] Compiling Language.Haskell.Exts.Annotated.Syntax (
src/Language/Haskell/Exts/Annotated/Syntax.hs,
dist/build/Language/Haskell/Exts/Annotated/Syntax.p_o )
virtual memory exhausted: Cannot allocate memory

 %build
+# s390 has max process size of 2GB
+%ifarch s390
+cabal_configure_extra_options="--ghc-option=+RTS --ghc-option=-M1000m
--ghc-option=-RTS"
+%endif
 %ghc_lib_build


```

I guess the problem is that it actually needs more VM (not less).
So unless I am mistaken the only solution is to exclude s390 for now.

cf https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=654786#8 for a different
package

How long do you plan to continue to support Fedora s390 btw?
