AArch64 : Installing 7.10.1 fails
Built 7.10.1 from the release tarball, using ghc-7.6.3 from Debian. Build of the compiler goes fine, but when I install it I get:
"inplace/bin/ghc-cabal" register libraries/ghc-prim dist-install \
"/home/erikd/GHC/7.10.1/lib/ghc-7.10.1/bin/ghc" \

ghc-cabal: libraries/Cabal/Cabal/Distribution/Simple/GHC.hs:1050:5-47:

The code in question is:
hcPkgInfo :: ProgramConfiguration -> HcPkg.HcPkgInfo
hcPkgInfo conf = HcPkg.HcPkgInfo { HcPkg.hcPkgProgram = ghcPkgProg
, HcPkg.noPkgDbStack = v < [6,9]
, HcPkg.noVerboseFlag = v < [6,11]
, HcPkg.flagPackageConf = v < [7,5]
, HcPkg.useSingleFileDb = v < [7,9]
}
where
v = versionBranch ver
Just ghcPkgProg = lookupProgram ghcPkgProgram conf
Just ver = programVersion ghcPkgProg
