#13039: ghc 6.6.1 does not build on Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: rzilibowitz@yahoo.com.au | Owner: gwright@macports.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.5.2 Resolution: | Keywords: GHC Leopard ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by dynasticon@mac.com): bfulgham asked:
Does the GHC team indicate they can build under Leopard? Last I checked, there were various e-mails indicating the problem was not resolved.
I just read through the ghc-users mailing list. It appears there are some thorny problems in the PPC build of 6.8.1 for Mac OS 10.5. The Intel build seems to work, or can be made to work fairly easily. (There are at least two theories on how to make it work, though.) I have to admit, it seems a little early to do the port of 6.8.1 unless the port master wants to help debug the PPC build. The MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET idea is a good one. As you say, it seems to have worked for the OCaml port. Thanks for the quick response! -- Ticket URL: <https://svn.macports.org/projects/macports/ticket/13039#comment:7> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
