It's like with powerpc.

Debian Developer information

Current work

It's possible that I left some files in the Debian machines I've used, so I'll check my homedir in them latter.

runhaskell is not available in arches without ghci

It should be, since it can compile the code an run it latter. I'll write a patch to ghc about it. The GHCI macro will be useful.

agda-stdlib

Laney@#debian-haskell@irc.oftc.net asked me to test if agda-stdlib ?from git builds in the arches that failed to build before, so I'm building it now.

No LibFFI in Alpha

I'm building ghc6-6.12.1-6 with a patch to see if it corrects the bug on libffi.

No GHCi in all arches

Where to work on

This is the list of arches without a working GHCi.

  • alpha (albeniz) (Building now)
  • armel (agricola) (Building now)
  • hppa (paer)
  • powerpc (pescetti)
  • s390 (zelenka)

I could not connect to mips or mipsel to check about it in them.

alpha

I'm checking about libffi first, then I'll investigate on it.

armel

I've made this patch to armel, to check if it builds correctly. I'm building it now.

hppa

I've made a patch to it, but I got a compile error. It seems that it EM_PARISC is not defined in the build. I think I'll try to replace it with 15 just to see what happens. I'm building now. I got to a segfault:

(sid)marcot@paer:~/ghc6-6.12.1$ inplace/lib/ghc-stage2 --interactive
GHCi, version 6.12.1: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
Segmentation fault

It's like with powerpc.

powerpc

segfault when ghci is started. No idea about it.

s390

It seems that the code for Elf Relocation must be written by a s390 expert.

GHC is not up-to-date in all ports

I could not connect to m68k to check about it.

hurd-i386

It seems that there's a non-deterministic bug happening when ghc 6.8 is executed. Maybe it's a bug in something introduced after 6.6. This needs more investigation.
