## Tier 2 platforms

|

Tier 2 platforms work (to varying degrees), but we rely on community support for
|
|
|
developing, testing, and building distributions. We may release GHC
|
|

with some Tier 2 platforms not working.

Platform-specific bugs on Tier 2 platforms are marked "low priority" (unless there's

a strong reason not to do so), not because they are unimportant to the users of that
|
|
|
platform, but to express the fact that they aren't going to hold up the release.

In most cases, binaries for the Tier 2 platforms can be downloaded from the [Distribution Packages](http://www.haskell.org/ghc/distribution_packages) page, e.g. you can get binaries for most of the Linux platforms from Debian. In some cases, for example the Solaris platforms, you'll need to go to the [download page](http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download) of a particular release to get a bindist.

Tier 3 platforms worked in the past, but probably do not work now.
