ghc 6.8.2_1 lang =14

A Compiler for the functional language Haskell
Maintained by: haskell@FreeBSD.org
Port Added: unknown
Also Listed In: haskell

---

---

Haskell is the standard lazy purely functional programming language.
The current language version is Haskell 98, agreed in December 1998,
with a revised version published in January 2003.

A wide variety of Haskell related resources (tutorials, libraries,
specifications, documentation, compilers, interpreters, references,
contact information, links to research groups) are available from
the Haskell home page at http://haskell.org/.

The Glasgow Haskell Compiler is a robust, fully-featured, optimising
compiler for the functional programming language Haskell 98 generating
good code for a variety of platforms. GHC is a state-of-the-art
programming suite for Haskell and compiles Haskell to either native
code or C. It implements numerous experimental language extensions to
Haskell, including concurrency, a foreign language interface, several
type-system extensions, exceptions, and so on. GHC comes with a
generational garbage collector, a space and time profiler, comprehensive
set of libraries and an interactive system for convenient, quick
development.

The profiling libraries for Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System
should be installed when GHC's profiling subsystem is needed.

• port moved here from lang/ghc6 on 2004-01-15
  REASON: Make 6.x default version
  

Updated haddock to 2.1.0.

Install manpage only with docs (building manpage depends on textproc/libxslt).

* Add to patches to fix ghc on amd64, which enables building of hs-alex,
whitespace, ...
* Bump PORTREVISION.

Obtained from:  http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc

Disable WITH_DOCS on amd64.

PR:             ports/121251

Ups, forgot to remove local hack for testing in previous commit :-(

* Add new knob WITH_DOCS to install the user
  documentation and the hyperlinkable documentation, generated
  by haddock and HsColour.
* Build haddock and HsColour for building documentaion only.
* Install manpage.

Welcome ghc on amd64.

Bootstrap tarball submitted by: "Thomas M. Hermann" <tmh.public@gmail.com>

* Correct pkg-plist.
* Add dependency on readline if already installed.
* Mark unbroken.

Mark BROKEN: does not deinstall

Enable build on 7.x.

Reactivate dependency on libgmp-port

Update to 6.8.2.

Remove always-false/true conditions based on OSVERSION 500000

Switch autoconf dependency to 2.61.

PR:             ports/116639
Submitted by:   aDe

Move the USE_PERL definitions, and others, before pre.mk inclusion.  This
will be needed to conditionalize bsd.perl.mk inclusion.

Approved by:    maintainer

Re-structure support for libraries in GHC:
This commit splits off the supporting libraries that pull in additional
dependencies like X11 and GL. These will be provided by separate ports
like x11/hs-x11-ghc using the "Cabal"-mechanism (a framework for installing
additional libraries into Haskell environments like GHC and NHC).
Accordingly, the libraries will put their files into a subdirectory of GHC.
List of libraries that have been split off: ALUT GLUT HGL OpenAL OpenGL X11

Also, finally remove dependency on devel/readline: the current readline in
base has all the features we need.

Bump PORTREVISION accordingly.

Tested through Tinderbox runs on lang/ghc and devel/darcs. Please be patient
for the supporting libraries to roll in in the next few days. All screwups
are my fault only and should not be attributed to haskell@.

Welcome bsd.perl.mk.  Add support for constructs such as USE_PERL5=5.8.0+.
Drop support for antique perl.

Update to 6.6.1.

- Welcome X.org 7.2 \o/.
- Set X11BASE to ${LOCALBASE} for recent ${OSVERSION}.
- Bump PORTREVISION for ports intalling files in ${X11BASE}.

Use MASTER_SITE_LOCAL for our own boot-file

Moved bootstrap tarball to haskell.org. Therefore readd master site.

Update lang/ghc to 6.6

Also fixes readline issue reported in PR ports/107380.
OpenAL support is not yet fixed, we might break that out into a
separate port, now that the upstream infrastructure is in place.

Your haskell@ team, Olli & Volker

Mark as BROKEN on -CURRENT until there's such thing as compat6x or somebody
does a bootstrap. libmapping the newer libs seems not to work.

make portlint happier

PR:             ports/96548
Approved by:    previous maintainer

Assign to haskell@FreeBSD.org: Simon hasn't enough time to care for the FreeBSD
version
and most of the problems with the port are my fault anyway.

Approved by: maintainer

- Enable build for 5.x
- Prune compat5 from LIB_DEPENDS on 6.x as it has been redundant for a while.

Mark as IGNORE for < 6.x as we do not have a bootstrap-tarball yet.

Chase gmp library and bump PORTREVISION.

Update to 6.4.2
This build uses an unthreaded RTS, please see the GHC mailing lists for
details and report any problems you observe (eg. non-termination/segfaults in
compiled binaries).

Approved by: cabal

Unbreak by disconnecting OpenAL support for now. The version in ports
seems to be different from the one GHC expects.

- Update graphics/libglut to 6.4.1.
- Shared lib version and PORTREVISION bumb for all affected ports.

- Remove USE_MESA knob where it was (35 ports).
  It marked as depricated for 2 years.

Honour WITHOUT_X11.
Note that except for OpenAL the --without-foo flags to configure are currently
ignored, so some post-configure intervention is required to get this right
when X11 is present but not desired.

Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order.  The code present
in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the
old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in
exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.

Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.

Preliminary documentation can be found at:
        http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt

which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.

Light blue touch-paper.  Run.

Requires newer version of perl than base in 4.x
