| Notes from UPDATING |
These upgrade notes are taken from /usr/ports/UPDATING
- 2013-06-04
Affects: users of lang/ghc and */hs-* Author: haskell@FreeBSD.org Reason:
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compiler has been updated to version
7.6.3 and Haskell Platform to 2013.2.0.0. Hence it is recommended to
rebuild or reinstall all the dependent ports by one of the following
commands:
# portmaster -w -r ghc
or
# portupgrade -fr lang/ghc
or
# pkg install -fR lang/ghc
Note that prefixes used for hs- ports (Cabal packages) have been
changed to PREFIX/{lib,share,share/doc}/cabal/ghc-GHC_VERSION to
enable more seamless upgrades in the future.
- 2013-03-31
Affects: users of */hs-* Author: haskell@FreeBSD.org Reason:
Due to some unexpected dynamic linking problems, Haskell Cabal ports with
binaries that link to their own libraries may not work. With default
configuration, the following ports are known to have this problem:
Agda, BNFC, pandoc, and uuagc. (Their port revision are now bumped.)
In general, it is recommended to rebuild the port if you are
experiencing that the corresponding binary will not start, e.g.:
% agda
Shared object "libHSAgda-2.3.2-ghc7.4.2.so" not found, required by "agda"
- 2013-02-05
Affects: users of lang/ghc and */hs-* Author: haskell@FreeBSD.org Reason:
Note that the recent devel/libffi update caused some breakage in the Haskell
ports with the DYNAMIC option enabled. The problem has been identified and
fixed since then. All Haskell ports have been updated to their latest stable
versions or bumped as DYNAMIC is enabled by default.
Hence it is recommended to rebuild or reinstall all ports depending on GHC
by one of the following commands:
# portmaster -w -r ghc
or
# portupgrade -fr lang/ghc
or
# pkg install -fR lang/ghc
- 2012-12-20
Affects: users of lang/ghc and */hs-* Author: haskell@FreeBSD.org Reason:
Note that the Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compiler has been updated to
version 7.4.2.
Please rebuild or reinstall all dependent ports by issuing one of the
following commands, depending on the tool used:
# portmaster -w -r ghc
or
# portupgrade -fr lang/ghc
or
# pkg install -fR lang/ghc
- 2012-06-03
Affects: users of lang/ghc and */hs-* Author: haskell@FreeBSD.org Reason:
Note that The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compiler and the Haskell Platform
have been updated to versions 7.4.1 and 2012.2.0.0, respectively. At the
same time, all Haskell ports have been updated to their latest working
versions.
To follow the changes, please issue one of the following commands
(depending on the tool used):
# portmaster -r ghc
or
# portupgrade -fr lang/ghc
- 2012-02-13
Affects: users of lang/ghc and */hs-* Author: pgj@FreeBSD.org Reason:
GHC has been updated to version 7.0.4, and Haskell Platform to version
2011.4.0.0, and other Haskell ports are also updated to their Haskell
Platform versions or latest versions.
To update all affected ports:
# portmaster -r lang/ghc
or
# portupgrade -r lang/ghc
- 2011-05-09
Affects: users of lang/ghc and */hs-* Author: ashish@FreeBSD.org Reason:
GHC has been updated to version 7.0.3 and other Haskell ports are also
updated to their Haskell Platform versions or latest versions.
To update all affected ports:
# portmaster -r lang/ghc
or
# portupgrade -r lang/ghc

0.1.1_8
|
pgj  |
- Update The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compiler to version 7.6.3
- Update Haskell Platform to version 2013.2.0.0
Please note that port revisions for all the Haskell ports without version
changes are bumped.
Some highlights of the update:
- Fix PDF generation for pandoc [1]
- From now on, PREFIX/{lib,share,share/doc}/cabal/ghc-GHC_VERSION are used for
hs- ports (Cabal packages) as prefixes to avoid problems when upgrading with
portmaster(8) [2]
- Experimental support for LLVM-based code generation (disabled by default)
- Many simplifications, refactoring in bsd.cabal.mk

0.1.1_7
|
pgj  |
- Fix breakage in the DYNAMIC-enabled ports triggered by the recent
devel/libffi update
- Enable multithreaded build for lang/ghc (i.e. mark MAKE_JOBS_SAFE)
Please note that port revision for all the Haskell ports without version
changes are bumped.
New ports (20):
devel/hs-MonadRandom 0.1.8
devel/hs-base64-conduit 0.5.1
devel/hs-bifunctors 3.2
devel/hs-either 3.1
devel/hs-errors 1.3.1

- Update The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compiler to version 7.4.2
- Update Haskell Platform to version 2012.4.0.0
- Update Gtk2Hs to 0.12.4
- Transfer maintainership of math/hs-math-functions to haskell@ [1]
Please note that port revisions for all the Haskell ports without version
changes are bumped.
Some further highlights of the update:
- Trim Makefile headers
- Enable dynamic libraries and dynamic linking by default
- Enable bootstrapping by versions of GHC and HsColour already installed
- Use GCC and binutils from ports

0.1.1_4
|
pgj  |
- Update The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compiler to version 7.4.1
Please note that port revision for all the Haskell ports without version changes
are also bumped. Other per-port updates are coming soon (in separate commits)!
In addition to that, separate -docs ports are no longer needed so they are
now removed.
Thanks ashish@ for the assistance.

- Please welcome GHC 7.0.4
GHC in the ports tree has been updated to version 7.0.4 and the port revision
for all the Haskell ports without version changes are bumped. Other per-port
updates are coming soon.
This update also incorporates some improvements for bsd.cabal.mk that makes
working with Haskell ports even easier.
Thanks ashish@ for the help!

Bump PORTREVISION of all ports dependent on lang/ghc as during
upgrade, lang/ghc cabal package cache gets invalidated causing all
dependent ports to be reinstalled.

- Please welcome GHC 7.0.3
GHC in the ports tree has been updated to 7.0.3 and all other Haskell ports
are also updated to their corresponding Haskell Platform versions, or latest
versions.
We would like to acknowledge the support of the FreeBSD Donations Team and
Eotvos Lorand University, Faculty of Informatics who contributed to the server
that we used for testing.
We would also like to thank all the testers who tested FreeBSD Haskell ports
and provided their feedback.
