Description Jochen Schmitt 2009-12-15 20:42:20 UTC
I want to tryout ghc-6.12.1 on my system and have installed ghc-rpm-macros-0.3.0-1 on my system.

Because I have trouble to compile my packages, I have try out the following command:

$ rpm -q --eval '%{ghc_version}'

and got the following output:

error: Recursion depth(17) greater than max(16)
 15<                               (empty)
 14<                             (empty)
 13<                           (empty)
 12<                         (empty)
 11<                       (empty)
 10<                     (empty)
  9<                   (empty)
  8<                 (empty)
  7<               (empty)
  6<             (empty)
  5<           (empty)
  4<         (empty)
  3<       (empty)
  2<     (empty)
  1<   (empty)
  0< (empty)

If I type 

$ ghc --numeric-version

I will get

6.12.1

which I expected for

$ rpm -q --eval '%{ghc_version}'

Thanks for the report - I have a fix that will be coming out in rawhide
shortly now that cvs and koji are back after the move. :)

Comment 2 Jens Petersen 2009-12-15 21:56:56 UTC
Please try 0.3.1 building now:

Comment 3 Jens Petersen 2009-12-15 22:00:30 UTC
or better http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=147239

Comment 4 Jens Petersen 2009-12-16 00:11:07 UTC
Though I think I need to warn and post to fedora-haskell-list
that there will likely be some more adjustments to the macros
and an update needed for cabal2spec for 6.12.1.

So you may want to hold off testing a little longer if want
something stable to work against, but early testing is welcome. :)
