In the new workflow a new openSUSE release is not bootstrapped against Factory anymore, but we need ghc to bootstrap ghc. This package contains binary distributions as source to prepare a somewhat minimal (no docs, no shared libraries) installation to bootstrap ghc. Currently, I cannot provide a binary distribution for ppc64le. The patches I have are sufficient to get a working ghc but not to prepare a binary distribution from ghc's source tarball. We could use ghc-bin from devel:languages:haskell for ppc64le. This issue will go away as soon as we update to ghc 7.8.3. Now a single tar file contains all four binary distribution tarballs.

Generating binary distributions for ghc bootstrap in Factory ============================================================ 1. Download source distribution from http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download 2. Apply patches for openSUSE * https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:languages:haskell:bootstrap/ghc-prepare-binary-distributions 3. Build binary distribution `make binary-dist` 4. Download rpms from: * https://build.opensuse.org/package/binaries/devel:languages:haskell:bootstrap/ghc-prepare-binary-distributions?repository=openSUSE_Factory * https://build.opensuse.org/package/binaries/devel:languages:haskell:bootstrap/ghc-prepare-binary-distributions?repository=openSUSE_Factory_PowerPC_standard 5. Extract tarball `rpm2cpio ghc-prepare-binary-distributions*.rpm | cpio -idmv` 6. Copy tarball to project devel:languages:haskell:compiler/ghc-bootstrap
