Hi, I'm running the Dec. 21 amd64 snapshot with Dec. 29 packages.
Trying to use hs-HDBC-postgresql-2.3.2.1p0 (from packages) or postgresql-libpq (via cabal install) in ghci ends in a linking failure similar to the problems we had back in october when ghc was updated. A ghc-compiled binary that uses postgresql-libpq runs fine. I tried some other hs packages in ghci like hs-HDBC-mysql-0.6.6.0p0, hs-HDBC-sqlite3-2.3.3.0p1 and hs-network-2.3.1.0 but they worked as expected. I don't think the packages are to blame as they work in ghci on the ubuntu of my gf. So, did someone else notice ghci linker problems since the workaround was commited back in october? Or is it possible, that the libpq.a archive is causing this? $ ghci GHCi, version 7.4.2: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done.
