These upgrade notes are taken from /usr/ports/UPDATING
- 2017-08-08
Affects: users of lang/ghc and */hs-* Author: haskell@FreeBSD.org Reason:
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compiler has been updated to version
8.0.2. Hence it is recommended to rebuild or reinstall all the
dependent ports and the lang/ghc port itself in one of the following
ways:
# portmaster -w -r ghc
or
# portupgrade -fr lang/ghc
In case of pkg(8), it is probably safer to remove all the GHC-dependent
packages along with GHC and reinstall everything from scratch. For
example:
# pkg query "%ro" ghc > ghc-pkgs.txt
# pkg delete -y lang/ghc
In ghc-pkgs.txt, check and remove all the packages that have been moved
on the update, then use this command:
# pkg install -y `cat ghc-pkgs.txt`
- 2015-08-20
Affects: users of lang/ghc and */hs-* Author: haskell@FreeBSD.org Reason:
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compiler has been updated to version
7.10.2 and Haskell Platform has been removed. As a result, it is
recommended to rebuild or reinstall all the dependent ports and the
lang/ghc port itself in one of the following ways:
# portmaster -w -r ghc
or
# portupgrade -fr lang/ghc
In case of pkg(8), it is probably safer to remove all the GHC-dependent
packages along with GHC and reinstall everything from scratch. For
example:
# pkg query "%ro" ghc > ghc-pkgs.txt
# pkg delete -y lang/ghc
In ghc-pkgs.txt, check and remove all the packages that have been moved,
then:
# pkg install -y `cat ghc-pkgs.txt`
- 2014-08-10
Affects: users of lang/ghc and */hs-* Author: haskell@FreeBSD.org Reason:
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compiler has been updated to version
7.8.3 and Haskell Platform to 2014.2.0.0. Hence it is recommended to
rebuild or reinstall all the dependent ports and the lang/ghc port
itself by one of the following commands:
# portmaster -w -r ghc
or
# portupgrade -fr lang/ghc
If you use pkg(8) then it is just safer to remove all the GHC-dependent
packages along with GHC and reinstall everything from scratch.
Something alone these lines may work:
# pkg query "%ro" > ghc-pkgs.txt
# pkg delete -y lang/ghc
# pkg install -y `cat ghc-pkgs.txt | grep -Ev "/hs-(haskeline|terminfo|transformers|xhtml)"
- 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

Switch C compiler used to compile GHC to base Clang.
This removes build dependency on gcc and runtime dependency on gcc's runtime
libraries.
Big thanks to Gleb for working on this.
