Patch problem with ghc, ongoing for a few days

English Applications
1

Running “sudo zypper patch” has yielded an update problem with ghc. This code is associated with the Glasgow Haskell Compiler. Not frequently used but I have used it somewhere in the past. This has been going on a couple of days so I thought I would publish as I can’t see that anyone else has. See below:

I have been selecting Solution 2. libHSvector is not found by by zypper. I could find a source for it or else wait for a solution. Not a major issue but any advice appreciated.

thanks, tom kosvic

Show the actual command you are using, not some meaningless three characters.

Commandline (sudo zypper patch) was given in first line of the text preamble of my post. szp is the alias

The ghc-HsYAML-aeson has to be rebuilt against updated Haskell stack. Open bug report for Leap 15.5, select Maintenance as the Component.

6

We appreciate that you post what we want: including the exact command. But when you then use aliases that are only known to you, we are back at the same point: mind reading required.

Rebuilld - Maintenance bug report was started about two weeks ago. No changes to the ghc update noted thus far.

Is there any obvious solution for this ?

I received a comment from a developer who said he would get to ghc issues. About 7 days later, today, it looks to be fixed. No message now related to ghc install when doing “sudo zypper patch”. Some ghc items were newly installed.

Looks like issue solved to me. Anyone still having problem?

thanks, tom kosvic

I just did sudo zypper patch and … same result.

Is there any other way to fix this ?

Sorry, but I did “sudo zypper patch” again and the ghc comments did not come up. What I said previously is accurate from my perspective.

I did do some cleaning/removal of “unneeded” packages which did include some ghc packages. Wonder if that had anything to do with it or if the developer got around to fixing it.

Maybe I deleted the items in Solution 1. I only deleted what were said to be unneeded.

I actually used Yast and did just the recommended Option 1 that is, deleting old versions of GHC packages that did not have dependencies.
After that yast actually re-installed the entire group of packages. And all seems to be well.

I ran zypper patch and selected Option 1.

Zypper processed a large number of packages and now everything is good.
